Often schools serve as the hub of the community. During times of disaster they become emergency shelters. A school building should be able to withstand hurricane, earthquakes, or even tornadoes - the Monolithic Dome will survive them all. The energy savings of the Monolithic Dome verses the conventional building are huge. If the savings are adjusted for inflation and invested in a bond savings account, they will equal the cost of the building within 20-30 years.
School districts can use savings to buy computers or give the teachers a pay raise.
A modern Monolithic school also makes a statement to the students, teachers and the communities. There is a new century ahead, and we should prepare for it. We are excited about it. We have great plans for it. We hope it pleases you, the reader.
