Lake and Peninsula School District has given each school in the district an incentive to reduce electricity usage. My plan is to see how much our school saves by turning off the gym lights when they are not in use. I will leave them operating normally for one full week, then turn them off in the morning when no one uses the gym, and find the difference.
Since the district as a whole must save 5% for any of us to get money, I would also like the students to create a blog and make sure the other schools have access and can post what they are doing to save electricity. Our students here are really into it, mostly because they like working in the dark, so hopefully students from other schools are already doing their part. The student involvement idea might be scrapped but I'd like to try. I'll let you know how it goes.
