The AFT is preparing a report on the condition of schools. 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)
Please be specific and provide examples.
