“I’m extremely excited to see this collaboration between our EMC and the Coweta schools,” CFEMC CEO Chris Stephens said. More than 30 educators from CCSS representing the following schools participated in the interactive tour, which focused on the rising demand for renewable energy: Arnall Middle School, Blake Bass Middle School, Central Educational Center, East Coweta High School, Evans Middle School, Lee Middle School, Madras Middle School, Newnan Crossing Elementary School, Newnan High School, Northgate High School, Poplar Road Elementary School, Smokey Road Middle School, Thomas Crossroads Elementary School, and Welch Elementary School. That’s a very valuable experience to us – and to the students – because we’re continuing to learn and pass it on!” “Teachers enjoy being students because when we learn new things, we go back and teach it to our classroom. “This program has allowed us to grow as educators,” said Elizabeth Lozano-Hensley, Newnan High School teacher. Held from July 20-22, the hands-on program offered dynamic, in-person sessions with valuable insight into the future of green energy, sustainability, and innovation. The summer adventure provided a three-day experience for local teachers, specifically in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). With hopes to provide a fun and educational experience centered around the growing demand of alternative energy options, Coweta-Fayette EMC (CFEMC) partnered with Coweta County School System (CCSS) to host its first-ever Alternative Energy Summer Adventure.
