Spring Break Holiday Shut Down
EveryTHING Needs a Vacation
Note from the District:
This is the second of three possible shut down challenges this school year. The aim of the Spring Break challenge is to turn off or unplug the greatest number of devices b the holiday. We will also be promoting a Summer Shut down challenge to prevent energy waste while our schools are closed.Thank you for helping us reduce energy waste!
Please unplug all devices, plugs, etc... before you leave for your well-deserve Spring Break! Maybe make it a class challenge! Email Tia on Friday afternoon with the number of devices you have unplugged in your classroom.
