Farley Elementary has been built to be a "green" school.

Here are some of the ways our building is "green":
  • During construction the workers used long lasting & durable masonry.
  • There are low maintenance brick masonry & prefinished metal exterior materials that require no future painting.
  • When possible materials with recycled content were used.
  • Over 90% of spaces have direct views to the exterior allowing natural light in.
