Being Green Fetches Bronx School $12,000 Prize

As the greenest borough, we take pride whenever we are recognized as such and students at P.S. / M.S. 194 certainly have made us proud. The Bronx school beat out 21 other schools in a 6 month citywide competition to save the most energy. In that time, the school was able to cut energy consumption by a whopping 21% thanks to its stud
ents and the non-profit organization, Solar One which put together a curriculum and taught students about how electrical equipment uses energy even when turned off.
Thanks to this wonderful collaboration, P.S. / M.S. 194 won the $12,000 prize. It may not seem like much but that certainly makes a difference in this cash-strapped economy.
Congratulations kids for doing such a terrific job!
