How Green is Your School?

chrisdesign_photorealistic_green_apple While there are many great school facilities across this country, we also know there are equal numbers of buildings that are unhealthy and inadequate—where students can't learn, teachers can't teach and staff can't do their jobs. Tell us about conditions in your school in the areas of:

* Air quality (temperature, odors, fumes, mold, dust)
* Lighting (lack of natural light, quality of lighting)
* Noise (external noise, noise from machinery, echoes, noise from adjacent rooms)
* Safety (structural, unsafe conditions, personal safety)
* Overcrowding (space allocation, too much equipment for space)
