- L.A. Unified's Maywood Academy High School (right) was named a semi-finalist in the 2007 Sustainable Leadership Awards for Design and Development. The campus is the first LAUSD high school to receive such a distinction, according to a district press release.
Maywood Academy’s sustainable features include: the "use of recycled content in its construction, improved storm water management, use of drought tolerant plants and shrubs, maximized use of daylighting to save energy costs and improve visual comfort and implementation of various energy efficiencies - including a cooling system which shuts off when windows are opened, and a 'cool roof' which insulates indoor temperature."
