The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources awarded Malden Public Schools $165,365 in grant funding to replace boilers at the Forestdale and Beebe Schools and weatherize the Early Learning Center.
This award comes after Malden received $250,000 last year for similar energy conservation measures in the Early Learning Center, the Ferryway School and Linden STEAM Academy.
