River Crest Elementary School (Hudson, WI) has been designed to perform as much as 35 percent more efficiently than the LEED baseline. The use of low-flow lavatories, dual-flush toilets, waterless urinals and other water-saving fixtures will cut water use by 40 percent. The site has been designed to retain rainwater, and is being landscaped with native prairie grasses to eliminate watering and reduce maintenance. It will serve as an outdoor classroom.
