In this week's podcast, Dr. Swift and Andrew Cluley talk with Executive Director Environmental Sustainability Emile Lauzzana.

We discuss the district's environmental efforts, including work that started this summer to install geothermal at Forsythe and Clague, solar panels, electric busses, and plans for all electric schools. Mr. Lauzzana also talks about the work of the Environmental Sustainability Task Force and an Environmental Sustainability Framework that is under development.

In AAPS good news we celebrate Community High School kicking off a year-long study and celebration of their building turning 100-years-old. Students and staff will be researching Jones School and the African-American community that lived in the area, with the goal of creating an historical marker to preserve the community's history.
