PowerSave Schools Program in Monmouth, Morris and Ocean Counties

Students at Drum Point Elementary School (pictured) are using light meters to make recommendations to their school about whether or not a class room is using more light than it needs. Sustainable Jersey for Schools is partnering with New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) and the Alliance to Save Energy (ASE) to bring the PowerSave Schools program to 14 New Jersey public schools. The schools are receiving training, lesson plans and other tools and resources to educate students about energy efficiency and engage the school community in energy saving activities. Schools get in-person support from a local project leader, both in implementing program activities and in earning points towards Sustainable Jersey for Schools certification. PowerSave teams at Canfield Avenue, Rockaway Valley and Riverview Elementary Schools are holding hallway-based competitions to assess who is best at following the energy-saving recommendations of their PowerSave teams. The winning hallway will receive a pizza party.
