On March 26, 2019, the U.S. Department of Energy Better Buildings Challenge visited Los Angeles Unified to recognize the energy productivity advances made at our schools. As a Better Buildings Challenge partner, Los Angeles Unified is committed to reducing energy use by at least 20% by 2024. The U.S. Department of Energy toured Helen Bernstein Senior High School and the Santee Education Complex to see firsthand the numerous upgrades made to these campuses to conserve energy. The U.S. Department of Energy also made a presentation at the Committee of the Whole to recognize and highlight the District’s sustainability efforts to reduce energy.
U.S. Department of Energy Better Buildings Director Maria Vargas said, “Thank you, because your commitment and success is an example for other school districts.”
Vargas added, “As schools become true centers for their community, there is a lot you can do with energy and energy issues that really drives a value in that property for the community.”
