JEN COL’s project planning, practices and commitment to ensuring the success of the project long-term were recognized by our team as great attributes in a construction partner. As a renovation project within an occupied facility, safety of staff and students was our top priority. JEN COL understood our needs and concerns and ensured that the working spaces were kept separate from those occupied by our staff and students.

Montrose Junior High School was built in 1960, tucked in front of the original Montrose School on land donated to the Grande Prairie School District by Rev. & Mrs. Alexander Forbes. The junior high school operated in this location until 1992, when a replacement Montrose Junior High School was built in the Country Club area in south Grande Prairie.
JEN COL Construction was awarded the contract to completely modernize the existing building and construct an addition with four classrooms and a corridor on the south side of the school. Modernization included new millwork, lighting, flooring, painting, a new fire alarm system and a complete overall of the mechanical systems.
