A focus on energy conservation brings the sciences to life in an art class at Redwood Middle School, in Napa, California. Sharon Campbell remembers sleeping out under the stars and watching Sputnik go overhead. Back then, she wanted to be the first ...astronaut. Instead, she became an educator. She has been teaching art now for twenty-one years at Redwood Middle School, in Napa, California, but she visits space on a regular basis, via a very special classroom.It began when Campbell won a grant from British Petroleum and went to Los Angeles for a workshop on energy conservation. She visited Southern California Edison, where she watched incoming energy switch throughout the state."It was during the heat wave, and I sat and watched California run out of electricity," she recalls. It was there she learned that power is a finite resource, and that if every homeowner installed just one energy-efficient lightbulb, it would be enough to avoid a blackout for an entire year. "And that’s when the big bulb went off," she says.Campbell and her husband spent $14,000 of their own money to turn her classroom into the RMS Energy Star. Every summer and every Christmas, when her daughter Jacqueline comes to town, the family repaints the classroom. "I want it to be perfect, because my students deserve it," Campbell says. "They deserve to be in a beautiful place, to know that I want them to be here, and that the school values them." (5:30)
