CC school

 

RRISD has a program to teach their students the value of keeping electricity costs down (we could all learn from them!).  Canyon Creek Elementary (CCE) campus was named the "Watt Watcher School of the Year" for RRISD for the 2007-2008 schoolyear. CCE was Campus of the Month in 9/07, 11/07 and 9/08.

Practical environment sensitive ideas are great to implement in our schools to help our children grow into responsible adults.  The "Green" building concept is carried over into so many ideas to improve the quality of life.  Are you aware of programs in your community schools that are similar?

Hi Dorie, Right now I'm not aware - only because I don't have children in school, and haven't heard of any programs --- I certainly hope there are some, though! What an awesome idea. Congratulations to those students! I am going to check if we have similar programs in Larimer County! Thank for the information!

Dorie it is great that schools in your area are taking a pro-active approach to saving energy. It's nice that you are keeping your readers informed about such local matters.
