In January Project ReCharge virtually hosted our first Sneak Peek training session where 30 teachers from 7 Nevada school districts and 24 schools engaged with our Sustainability Introduction lesson. These incredible educators from across multiple disciplines including STEM, science, art, social studies, robotics, and CTE, calculated their carbon footprint and learned how to keep the topic of sustainability positive with an empowering message. Our next sessions will include an investigation of live school data with the McKinstry Dashboard, and lessons dedicated to the wind, solar, and passive cooling. For more information check out our website.   Read More →
