Winter Break – the perfect time to save energy


Did you know that besides summer vacation, winter break is the best opportunity to make major behavior changes related to energy conservation at your school? When students and teachers are preparing to leave the school building for an extended break, they’re more likely to implement simple energy saving techniques like closing window blinds, unplugging appliances, turning off power switches, and turning thermostats down. Everyone knows that it takes a lot of energy to heat large buildings in the cold winter months. So let's all work together to make sure our classrooms and buildings are shut down properly before we leave for winter break.

Teachers, you will be receiving a shutdown checklist from your Principals to make the shutdown process easy and fun to engage your students in the process.

 Kenton County School District is at the forefront of engaging and empowering people to manage their consumption. Please tour this website to learn about our energy management program. And check back often to see how we continue to improve!
