Summer School Announcement

In an effort to conserve energy during summer session, all classes will be held Monday through Thursday to allow for air conditioning and lights to be shut down completely for three days per week. During the four-day school week, thermostats will be set at 78 degrees for air conditioning units, and all units will be automatically switched off at eight o'clock at night and switched on at eight o'clock in the morning. In addition, motion-sensitive light panels will replace current manual switches in all buildings, including classrooms, offices, meeting rooms, and bathrooms. When no motion is detected in a room for more than one minute, the lights will turn off until motion reactivates them.
