Blount County, AL School District Ramps Up STEAM Curriculum
Blount County Schools, Alabama, had ambitious goals: to modernize every facility spread across 651 square miles for brighter, safer and healthier learning environments. However, the challenge of maintaining their aging, distanced facilities siphoned the budget necessary for modernization into increasing maintenance and utility costs. Blount County Schools' energy performance contract not only reduces district energy savings by 31%, but reengages local students in state-of-the-art STEAM activities.
