PSG Brings Solar Energy To Light With Jefferson Elementary StudentsRecently, fourth-grade students at Jefferson, a Warsaw Community Schools (WCS) STEM-certified elementary school, have been learning about various kinds of renewable energy: wind, hydro and solar power.
WCS district partner, PSG Energy Group, came in to share about solar power. In 2016, PSG first installed solar panels throughout WCS buildings and has remained a close partner, according to a news release from WCS.
Last week, a team from PSG came to continue the preventative maintenance program throughout the district. While in town, they stopped by Jefferson to meet with students, share the potential behind solar energy at local and national levels and continue the dialogue with a question-and-answer session.
This specific partnership with PSG and Jefferson Elementary School has taken place for the last few years.
Marc Andrews, a fourth-grade teacher, said, “PSG was able to take a complex subject matter and make it understandable to our students. They brought scientific, engineering, and practical experience together.”
Fourth-grade student Elijah Jarrett was grateful for the time, stated the release. He said, “Thank you for doing everything you can for us to better understand solar energy.”
