The Bay Area is finally getting warmer summer weather, just in time for the state-mandated 105 degrees for the first day of school Monday.
The schools do not have air conditioners. The heaters are not turned on until December first, regardless of conditions. The district's administration building has full-time HVAC, of course. For the computers, poor things.

Nothing's too good for the administrators...

But seriously...
I worked as a TA in the Library for a couple semesters. I am not kidding when I report that I saw snowflakes coming out of the powerful A/C vents over the reference section (my assigned area).
And the real boggler; I attended the rural high school, that was several miles out of town. But the HVAC was still controlled centrally out of the district office. Oh, and every spring, the district maintenance people would be up on the roof, laying new tar. Guess what that did to the temperature inside the building?

I graduated right after they finally decided that all the classrooms needed air conditioning too, and started retrofitting them. Timing is everything... :-(
