Throughout the country schools are confronting multiple challenges - shrinking budgets, increasing student to teacher ratios, escalating costs, and deteriorating physical plants.
The unprecedented pressure of the current budget crisis impacting many states and the Federal Government will affect all schools and districts. The schools’ focus on dealing with these issues compromises their ability to mount innovative initiatives that are fundamental to progressive and effective education.
CRs blend of products, lesson plans, and site specific data collection methodology assures a compelling learning experience and creates a program that addresses the baseline for product effectiveness. In addition, immediate cost savings are realized as energy expenses are reduced and a mechanism is put in place to help realize larger future cost savings.
