Eldorado Community School Open New Building – Looks Fantastic!

Lisa Smith — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 19:58:06 +0000

There is now enough room in Roni Rohr’s art class for all her kids to hula hoop.

Which is what her fifth-graders did a few minutes after they walked into their brand-new classroom at El Dorado Community School a few minutes past noon Wednesday.

The walk-in closet in her new room is about half the size of the portable class Rohr had been teaching art in for the past four years. “I’m jazzed,” she said of her new room, which includes spacious wall storage space, an art sink and a separate closet full of recycled art supplies.

She didn’t have all of those recycled pieces, be they feathers or buttons, before she moved into her new class on Monday and Tuesday: “I found so many things. I actually gained [items]. I’m a huge recyclable person, so anybody who got rid of stuff during the move? — My gain.”

Her fifth-graders all pretty much used the same word to describe their new digs: “Awesome.”

They weren’t alone in sharing that reaction. You could feel an energetic buzz among the roughly 600 students in the K-8 as they moved through the newly painted hallways from one class to another Wednesday.

The El Dorado students didn’t have to go to school Monday or Tuesday this week as staff members took those two days to move into their new rooms, following about a year’s worth of construction on site. Though construction will continue through summer’s end, the 45 new classrooms and offices, including a science check-out lab, new computer labs and a teachers lounge, were ready to go for the teachers by Monday.

The construction also included a new gymnasium and a new second floor with upstairs wings of classes for the fifth- through eighth-graders. By August, the school will have a new cafeteria in a new building behind the main building, and the current cafeteria (in the small gym) will be remodeled into a combination music/band room.

El Dorado is just one of several capital-improvement projects funded by a $160 million general-obligation bond approved by voters in 2009. Gonzales Community School’s staff and students moved back into their remodeled digs last week, for instance.

El Dorado Principal Anne Darnton was unpacking boxes and moving items around her newly furnished office Wednesday. The kids, she said, were excited to discover three sets of stairs in the newly constructed facility.

“The teachers got to see their new rooms last week,” she said. “Almost everyone has been teaching in portables at one time or another, so they were pretty excited.”

Darnton said there are still about 15 portables on campus, although none are in use. She hopes the district will remove them before semester’s end. The playground will undergo a remodel during the summer too, she said.

Only the school’s kindergartners did not move into new classes — their classes, which were renovated a year ago, line the hallway with both the administrative office and the library.

Although Darnton’s office is ready, the school’s administrative assistants, currently sitting in a lone portable in front of the school, have to wait another week or so before the new main entrance, including their office, is finished by the construction crew.

Board member Glenn Wikle, whose District 2 includes El Dorado, stopped by the school for a visit Wednesday morning. He said the transformation was “amazing — it’s like a whole different school. And everything works!”

Prior to construction, the school building totaled about 65,776 square feet prior. Now it totals about 96,100.

“No wonder the custodial staff feel like they have a lot more to clean,” Darnton said.

ELDORDO SOLAR FORUM AND SOLAR HOME TOUR WEEKEND

March 24^th and 25^th

Eldorado has an amazing history as a solar community. As we look ahead, we have many great opportunities to move from passive to active solar. The upcoming Solar Forum will help inform and equip Eldorado area residents as we take steps to become more sustainable, more energy independent and to save some green as we GO GREEN!

Come to this educational solar forum and home tour created and organized by SERA (Sustainable Eldorado Residence Alliance) and co-sponsored by the ECIA, the Sierra Club, and La Tienda that will be presented on Saturday, March 24^th, from 1 to 4pm at the Performance Space in La Tienda. The home tour will be held on Sunday, March 25^th from 10 to 3 consisting of 9 homes to give everyone an opportunity to see a wide variety of solar solutions and talk to the homeowners about their system. This promises to be a very instructive and enlightening weekend for anyone who has been considering adding solar to their homes. Please come early as we expect a capacity crowd!

The forum format will consist of 4 workshops; solar photovoltaics (PV), solar thermal, solar financing and cost benefits, and conservation and usage. Each workshop will be facilitated by specialists in that respective field and will be 45 minutes in duration. Forum attendees can choose any two workshops to attend. After the workshops, the workshop leaders will participate on a panel where they will answers questions from the audience.

Here is a more detailed description of what each workshop will cover:

Solar Photovoltaic (PV):

System economics – incentives and tax credits

Solar Thermal Systems

Instructor: Peter Page, co-founder of AMEnergy, conducts project consultations, system design and selection, and installation of equipment for thermal energy systems.

Peter will be orienting the audience to Solar Thermal Technology (most confuse it with Solar Photovoltaics) and the various applications in which it can function and help save on energy costs. Topics include:

What is Solar Thermal?
Solar Thermal vs. Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
Solar Thermal Applications (domestic hot water, integrated space heating)
Mounting Options / Aesthetics and Functions
Economics and Benefits of Solar Thermal Technology including tax credits

Financing Options and Cost Benefits: 3 segments

2) Deciding to Go Solar – Cost and Benefits, Selecting System Size

Instructor: Craig O’Hare, Santa Fe County Energy Programs Specialist, Public Utilities Division

Solar photovoltaic (i.e. electric) systems have dropped nearly half in price in the last five years. But homeowners are still faced with challenging questions in deciding to go solar.

How big of a system size makes sense?
What if I transition to electric vehicles in the future?
What about financing? Are the federal, state and utility incentives going to be around much longer?
How long is the “pay-back” period?
What will a system do to the value of my home?

3) Current and future prospects for financing renewable energy projects in Santa Fe County

Instructor: Kathy Holian, Santa Fe County Commissioner

Kathy will provide an update and the role the County will play in such things as:

Municipal utilities
Assessment-based financing
Revolving loan funds, and more

Conservation and Usage

Instructors: Jan Deligans and Amy Bertelli, local energy conservation experts

This talk will cover the basics of energy conservation and how to conserve effectively. Bring a few months of your electric bill and Jan and Amy will help you analyze your own situation. Topics included:

How electricity is measured – what is a kilowatt hour?
What is the average usage and how does my usage compare?
How much energy do different appliances use?
How to use a kilowatt meter and analyze the cost effectiveness of changing appliances to energy star.
How to buy an energy efficient refrigerator.
What would it cost if I conserved first?
