Solar Schoolhouse in Glendale CA
Since 2007 The Rahus Institute has partnered with Glendale Water and Power to bring the Solar Schoolhouse program to local schools and the community. Education Energized by the Sun describes the mission of Solar Schoolhouse providing educators the tools for exploring the science and art of designing with sunshine, improving lives, and shaping a clean energy future. A reoccurring theme is to provide classroom resources through educator workshops, helping teachers integrate clean energy lessons into their class curriculum in a fun and engaging manner. We’ve also organized events for the whole community, including the annual Solar Discovery Faire where students lead hands-on activities for community visitors. The program evolves each year, while the mission remains the same – that participants become active participants in helping shape a clean energy future.
