<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;">Join us for an exclusive tour of P.S. 62: The Kathleen Grimm School for Leadership and Sustainability—the first net-zero-energy school in New York City. Using onsite renewable sources, this pioneering
elementary school is designed to harvest as much energy as it uses on an annual basis. </p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;">As the NYC School Construction Authority’s first “sustainability lab,” the building incorporates a host of sustainable features, including an ultra-tight building envelope, daylit offset corridors,
a geo-exchange system, a solar thermal system for hot water, as well as a vegetable garden and greenhouse. Come explore this trailblazing school with a curriculum that doesn’t stop in the classroom.</p>
