Oakwood School District selected Ameresco to address the needs
of their aging facilities and construct the build-out to provide an
enhanced learning environment for staff and students. Upon project
completion, all Oakwood Junior High students and staff will move to
the new wing, added to the Oakwood Grade School building, where
more technology and resources will be available to them. The
existing Junior High building will be closed (except for the use of
the gym as necessary), allowing the existing, aged building systems
to be shut down, which provides the district energy savings through
the use of new, more efficient building systems in the new
wing.
Superintendent Larry Maynard
stated that “Through the use of our ESSER Funds we have begun the
process of consolidating the junior high with our grade school as a
means to enhance the educational opportunities and resources for
student growth.”
“We commend Oakwood School District for taking steps to improve
the working and learning environment for their staff and students,”
said Lou Maltezos, EVP at Ameresco. “We are proud to be their
implementation partner for these infrastructure upgrades.”
Groundbreaking on the project took place yesterday, with
participation from the Oakwood School District Superintendent and
the Board of Education. The project is expected to be complete in
Summer 2022.
