Today's Energy Insight

Thousands of Opportunities to Save Energy!

With over 12,000 students and more than 2,200 employees in our district, one flip of a switch does make a difference. If just once per day, 1/4 of the district staff remembers to turn off lights in an unoccupied area, that's 550 times a day energy is being conserved. If 1/10 of the students remember just once a day to turn off a computer monitor, that's 220 times a day monitors are being powered down. Now multiply those numbers by 5 and in one week alone, there are literally thousands of opportunities to save energy if just a fraction of the students and staff turn off a light or shut off a monitor. All our small efforts do add up to make a big difference!
