What would need to be changed and why? What is a sunroof? Where are the sunroofs going?
We are planning to make a sunroof. We will be changing the roof and replacing it with sunroofs . The reason we are doing this is to save electricity ,because we feel that Coppell schools are using too much electricity per month .
A sunroof is a panel on a roof that gives of sun light, so instead of using electricity for light we can just use sunlight.
Our plan is to install a sunroof in every classroom ,we will not install it In the gym or the hallways .
Our plan it a school setting
Who would implement the sunroof? How will our school maintain the sunroof ?Who's permission do we need?
- will need permission from CMS West princeable and Coppell ISD School Disrtict
- don't need to hire anybody to maintain the sunroof
- it will take 1-2 summer(s)
- we don't want kids to be in school while construction
What would be the cost to implement vs. savings it would allow? How will you raise the money to carry out your plan
- Cost would be $165.00 approximently for a sun roof
- It would save light energy and electricity energy by a lot.

Another example of a sunroof
This is a sunroof similar to the one that we would implement. Ours would of course be in the classrooms though.
Another at-home sunroof
This is the top view of a sunroof at a house, but it would look similar at school. Our school has a flat roof, so it would look a lot like this picture.
Classroom Sunroof
It is hard to see, but this is a sunroof in a classroom.
