Undaunted K12 announced that six school districts have been awarded federal funds for clean energy projects. These projects will make schools safer, healthier, and more sustainable. This highlights the importance of investing in climate action at educational institutions. These initiatives aim to create resilient learning environments for students.
With 19 school buildings already utilizing ground-source heat pumps for heating and cooling— and more planned—the district is advancing modern, common-sense energypractices in all new construction projects. The district is supporting the local economy by partnering with three local construction firms—Lydig Construction, Absher Construction, and Cornerstone GCI—while also employing apprentices and upholding high-road labor standards.
