Energy Conservation
Cool the Earth- In 2012 an assembly for the entire school on simple actions students, teachers and parents can take to save energy and other resources to reduce their carbon foot print. Each student in every grade was given an action coupon book and pledge with actions they could take at school and at home. Students did things like turning off lights, unplugging televisions and reminding parents to wash clothes in cold water. Students returned coupons to school and school was able to save thousands of pounds of carbon.
30, 3-5th graders installed light switch decals in every room and took an energy saving pledge in March 2014.
30,3-5th graders did an all school energy audit in March,2014 aided by the Baltimore Energy Challenge. They installed a door hanger in every classroom reminding teachers and students to turn off lights and unplug computers and install power strips
