The Sudbury Catholic District School Board will be presenting the first In-service of Year 5 for new Dearness Conservation (DC)Teachers on Tuesday, December 6, 2005 at the Sudbury Catholic District School Board’s Catholic Education Centre.

The day’s agenda will include an overview of the big picture regarding the global need to reduce consumption, a report from the Board’s facility services re the rebate that each school will be receiving from the energy savings for Year 4 of the DC Program, and an on-line presentation on the new SCDSB Conservation Website.

Dearness Conservation is a multi-year program designed for school boards to improve their energy use, water consumption and waste management practices. A co-operative team of students, teachers, principals and custodians work together with DC to help schools conserve resources and protect the environment.
