Schneider Electric Energy Performance Project

Mesa County Valley School District 51 is committed to creating safe, efficient, and high-performing learning environments for students, staff, and the broader community. As the district continues to navigate limited state funding, we are proactively exploring every opportunity to be responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars while maintaining quality education and facilities.

As part of this effort, D51 has partnered with Schneider Electric on a district-wide energy efficiency initiative. This project is one piece of a broader strategy to reduce operating costs, improve building performance, and allow staff to focus more time and resources where it matters most, supporting students.
