Making the Grade

If the Prior Lake-Savage Area School District were to receive a grade for their 2nd quarter results, it would have to be an A+ for the outstanding efforts made during April, May and June to save energy. Kudos to our ever energy conscious staff and students because during those three months the district reduced their overall energy consumption by a whopping 20% resulting in a $53,824.00 savings to the district! When added to the total of $199,364.00 from 2010 and the $47,651.00 from the first quarter of 2011, our total savings since implementing the SEE program are (drum roll, please) $300,839.00!!!

It cannot be repeated enough, this is a huge TEAM effort between everyone who consumes energy in the district: from the custodians and kitchen staffs to the teachers and administrators to the I.T. staff and building secretaries to all the students and everyone else throughout the district. Thanks for making the grade when it comes to energy efficiency!
