Building Enclosure was recently joined by Tish Tablan, Program Director for Solar for All Schools with clean energy non-profit Generation180. Tish sat down with us to talk about the recent “Brighter Future” report that analyzes the progress of the solar movement and shares the success stories of schools that are leading the way.

Scott Downie, Principal at Spiezle Architectural Group, joined us to discuss the matter of designing for school safety. As schools start up again, there’s a stronger focus on safety, creating inclusive environments, incorporating new technologies, and building stronger communities.
