Mike Schrock is a Minneapolis-based architect whose design of an Elk River school is aiming for LEED certification. Leadership in Energy and Envrionmental Design or LEED is a "nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high performance green buidlings." To go for the green, architects' efforts are graded. "LEED drives a lot of the design," Mike Schrock says. "There's so much decided before you start your building. I think that's really confining for a lot of architects, but I really like it."
