Did you know the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics finds that 25 percent of America’s public schools report unsatisfactory ventilation, and 20 percent report unsatisfactory indoor air quality?
Maintenance and engineering managers often cite limited budgets as the reason for not making needed improvements. The Healthy Green Schools & Colleges new certification standard aims to change that. This partnership between the Healthy Schools Campaign and Green Seal helps managers identify and implement low- or no-cost measures designed to significantly improve school indoor air quality.
