Far too often our nation’s schools are only built to code and we send our children to spend six hours a day in facilities that just barely meet health and safety standards.
This must change.
Every child deserves to go to a school with healthy air to breathe and conditions that encourage learning.
Green schools are healthy for kids and conducive to their education. Green schools encourage:
- daylight and views.
- high indoor air quality.
- excellent acoustics.
- mold prevention.
- thermal comfort.
Numerous studies have demonstrated direct benefits to student health and performance. Learn how...
- daylight improves performance.
- good indoor air quality improves health.
- acoustics increases learning potential.
- mold prevention decreases asthma incidence.
- comfortable indoor temperatures increase occupant satisfaction.
