Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Hub - online resource hub

It’s important for school district staff to understand how indoor air quality can support healthier students and staff, improve academic performance, and help build thriving school communities. Research shows clear links between indoor air quality and student health, learning, and school performance.

Checkout the Center for Green Schools’ IAQ Hub for a variety of resources including:

The IAQ Hub also provides resources on common challenges including mold, wildfire smoke, HVAC improvements, IAQ monitoring, chemical exposure, and staff training.

Additionally, the Center for Green Schools hosts an annual School Air Quality Fellowship, supporting K–12 public school district facilities leaders. Fellows receive practical training plus individualized, district-specific coaching to help turn IAQ and energy goals into an implementable plan alongside a trusted network of peer districts and technical experts. Meet the 2026-2027 Fellows and consider applying for the 2027-2028 cohort. Applications open in Spring 2027. Contact schools@usgbc.org if you have any questions.
