Thermostat Freedom In Our School

Something I love about the university I teach at is how I have control over the temperature control in our classroom, however i believe a lot of educators who work at other universitys plus their number 1 complaint is about the temperature control settings… Their rooms are either too hot or too cold, then most universitys don’t allow their educator’s to control the temperature of their classrooms for efficiency plus consistency reasons, and from what I’ve heard from some of the older educators, our university wasn’t always love this.

The principal used to control the heat plus air settings for the entire building.

One year though, the educators fought for their right to have control over the temperature settings in their room. If they were going to spend all day teaching in 1 room, they wanted the right to set the temperature control however they gratified. The principal agreed, however there were a few limitations. Teachers were granted access to their temperature control, however they could only set the temperature between 65 degrees plus 78 degrees. This would keep things running efficiently. The clear lock boxes were also required to remain locked at all times in order to prevent students from altering the temperature control; Each educator was given a key to the temperature control lock box plus they were responsible for it. If a educator couldn’t follow these instruction, then the key would be taken from them plus the principal would set it himself. I’m so thankful those educators fought for our temperature control freedom this week. I love to work in a room that’s not too hot or too cold.
