We are proud to be part of the Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) projects! Montgomery County Public Schools continues demonstrating their commitment to sustainability by adding vegetated roofs to manage stormwater, reduce carbon emissions, lower energy consumption, and support biodiversity. In addition to the numerous environmental benefits, vegetated roofing systems have been shown to enhance student concentration and reduce stress. Our vegetated roofing systems are both low-maintenance and resilient. Check out the recent images of our project at Charles Woodward High School, installed by Adaptive Green eight months ago. The pre-grown vegetated roofing system is flourishing and has withstood the recent high temperatures. We would also like to thank our partners who made this project possible: Grimm + Parker Architects Cole Roofing Co., Inc. Sempergreen USA Thank you also to the MCPS team Harris Trobman, Maurice Butt and Shiho S.. Charles Woodward High School opens to students this September! #greeninfrastructure #stormwatermanagment #greenbuilding #sustainabledesign #school #highschool #resliency #biodiversity
