The panel will describe their recent facility improvement projects which will reduce expenses significantly. Some of the costs incurred through COVID-19 safety measures have been offset through their energy savings and facility improvement projects implemented in 2019. Statistical results will be shared as evidence of real dollar savings. Ms. Rice will summarize a wide range of projects that Noble Local Schools implemented during the past 3 years, including LED lighting, HVAC improvements, waste water treatment plant, and other facility improvements. Mr. Paul will explain his district's LED lighting upgrade project and results, which include an improved educational environment and significant dollar savings. He will highlight the benefits of using the Ohio Council of Educational Purchasing Consortia (OCEPC) program which had bidding already completed and saved significant time and money for the district. Participants will come away with ideas on working with their own district staff on evaluating the need for these projects and how to convince the board & community of the importance of moving forward with these investments.
