Orchard Hills has earned EPA’s Energy Star! Over the past three years an “Energy Incentive” has been offered to each school. The certification process isn’t easy. Air quality, lighting quality, and the overall Energy Use Index readings and calculations of each facility are taken into account. Data is then gathered and compared. We then receive a score based on the grading criteria.
