Last Out, Lights Out

Last Out, Lights Out

Our district and campus has started a campaign to create awareness of turning off lights in all rooms.  The campaign is called Last Out, Lights Out.  Above every light switch in the building is a neon green sign that reminds everyone to turn out the lights.  Below is the amount of energy we have saved for the first half of the school year.  The students have embraced the campaign and are being more aware of it in their homes.  Parents have commented that they are the “energy sheriffs” at home.
