The Magic of Geo-Thermal; or In Praise of those who together planned EHS in 2001

At the last board meeting of the Evansville School District, Superintendent Heidi Garvin made a passing reference to the fact that geothermal was going to be a big factor in helping the school district control heating costs, at least at the new high school.

I attended the meeting where a presentation was made about an initial design for the proposed school, back in 2000 I believe. A man stood up from the audience and suggested that we not only build a school, but be very state of the art and forward thinking and that the initial design was not the best we could do. Supt.Gary Albrecht responded by asking him to help form a group to get the best for the new school. Out of that openenss to input came our geothermal system for the new high school.

Stay tuned to the Observer, where I hope to bring you more information about the progress Evansville makes in staying in the lead on the energy front.
