District Meetings at Berrien RESA
Another type of meeting is the type of meeting we are focusing on for Green Meeting Month: our districts coming to our location for meetings.
Let’s see how much time and mileage it costs for all fourteen districts to send someone to a meeting at Berrien RESA. These calculations are for one direction and are rough estimates.
| District | Time | Miles |
| Benton Harbor | 30 min | 15 |
| Berrien Springs | 2 min | 2 |
| Brandywine | 20 min | 11 |
| Bridgman | 25 min | 12 |
| Buchanan | 20 min | 10 |
| Coloma | 30 min | 21 |
| Eau Claire | 10 min | 4 |
| Galien | 30 min | 22 |
| Lakeshore | 22 min | 11 |
| New Buffalo | 45 min | 28 |
| Niles | 20 min | 11 |
| River Valley | 40 min | 25 |
| St. Joseph | 25 min | 15 |
| Watervliet | 35 min | 24 |
| Totals | about 6 hours | 211 miles; $116 / one way |
If everyone got comfortable with videoconferencing at their own site, we could save 12 hours and over $200 for each meeting that met over videoconferencing! Multiple that by the number of meetings and 10 months in the school year and it adds up quickly!
