Sponsored by British Petroleum, a $10,000 grant will enable Barbers Hill Elementary to raise the awareness of energy conservation in the community with a wide variety of multi-disciplinary activities. Some of the highlights include the development of an environmentally friendly garden, a campus recycling initiative, monthly energy audits, a district web site dedicated to energy conservation, energy conservation lessons, and a community-wide Earth Day celebration. With this unit of study, we will develop the “Barbers Hill Green Team”, a student-based group that will monitor our progress in the area of energy conservation.  Pictured are Elementary teacher Kari Sager and some of her students
