Why we want solar panels at school.

I am Curtis Turner, and I am writing to you about why we should have solar panels at Paroa School. 

I think we should have solar panels at school because It helps the environment even though it uses more money but some people can make them cheaper. it helps the environment because it absorbs energy, from the sun and the clouds and you have to pay for the solar panels once so it all eventually adds up. 

Solar panels cost around $17,000 each or for two solar panels, I'm not quite sure how many. Solar panels can be cheaper but it depends on what company you buy them from. some schools have solar panels on their roofs but we will be the first on the west coast.

To cover the main 3 roofs and power the school we will need 47 solar panels at our school. We would need to fundraise a lot of money but eventually, it will work. We would still need the wifi obviously because that can't be powered by solar panels.

In conclusion I beleive that we should have solar panels so please think about it happening.


Today we have been writing letters to the pta and this is what I have written down, I hope that if you are reading this and you are apart of the pta you can do this for us. I liked that I had a couple of ideas so that made it a little bit easier. I didn't like that I had to think for a while because some of this I made off of my head.
