The US Green Building Council Redwood Empire Council and the American Institute of Architects Redwood Empire presents:
A Case Study and Tour in Sustainability, Community and Education of American Canyon High School
Join your local Redwood Empire Chapter of the US Green Building Council and the American Institute of Architects Redwood Empire in celebrating the green design, engineering and community asset that is American Canyon High School. AIA offers the bonus of continuing education AIA credits.
The Napa County High School opened its doors in Fall of 2010 to welcome students and community to an ultra-sustainable and energy efficient campus. The campus achieved Gold certification in the US Green Building's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Program. In the Napa Valley Unified School District, it was more than five years in the planning and was designed for the students, their education and the community. It is the first school in California built under the Collaborative for High Performance Schools, a fellow green-building rating program for K-12 schools.
The $121 million is the largest public building complex in American Canyon and was designed by Quattrocchi Kwok Architects in Santa Rosa, California. It includes seven two-story buildings for administration offices, library, 400-seat theater, multi-use rooms, classrooms, a split-level gym, locker rooms, student store, aquatic center with swimming pool, two storage buildings, football/soccer stadium complex, two concession stands, two baseball fields, two softball fields, two soccer fields and outdoor tennis and basketball courts.
This project boasts a 1MW photovoltaic station providing about 85% of the electricity needed for the campus and a ground source heat pump that uses the earth’s temperature to help heat and cool buildings. Did you know that the average school is 42 years old, and energy inefficiencies cost it approximately $100,000 a year? Come hear from Architect Aaron Jobsen and Engineer Chris DelCore, plus others directly involved in this top project as they share how the building and design increased efficiencies, while creating a sense of community, supported career-driven education, and improved public access to amenities on the campus.
