More than 53 million children and about 6 million adults spend a significant portion of their days in more than 120,000 public and private school buildings. Many of these buildings are old and in poor condition, and may contain environmental conditions that inhibit learning and pose increased risks to the health of children and staff. The Schools web site is designed to provide one-stop access to the many programs and resources available to help prevent and resolve environmental issues in schools.
