Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) can cause or exacerbate illnesses in children and adults, which in turn leads to absence from school. Poor IAQ can cause health symptoms that decrease performance while at school. Recent data suggest that poor IAQ can reduce a person's ability to perform specific mental tasks requiring concentration, calculation, or memory. Poor indoor air, containing a variety of particles and gaseous contaminants, most often occurs when schools fail to follow simple practices that create and maintain a healthy indoor environment. At MMSD we have a process for investigating all IAQ issues. We combine best practices with guidelines from the EPA and our IAQ consultants.
