Green School Initiative

Class of 2012 green project

Members of our class of 2012 put together a public service announcement as part of the requirements for Green School status.

Water quality projects

Students in our science classes participated in several water quality projects. The intent of the projects was to survey the quality of the water and the surrounding watershed.

Wind turbine project

The GM/Discovery Education Live Green grant allowed us to build two wind turbines this year and we are happy to say that both turbines are up and producing electricity for the lighting in Mr. Bliss's classroom. Although there are still some adjustments and modifications to be made to optimize the system, we are happy with the results. The turbines will be taken down for the summer then re-erected next fall and allowed to run for the school year.

We have included a brief video of our machines in action and a PowerPoint presentation of the design and building process will soon follow. Many thanks to the parents, staff, and administration that helped make this possible.
