WASHINGTON - School districts leading the way to prevent and solve indoor air quality problems in schools will be honored at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) 10th Indoor Air Quality Tools for Schools National Symposium in Wash., D.C., Jan. 14-16. EPA created the Tools for Schools program a decade ago to address a range of indoor air quality and related problems in school buildings, including respiratory problems, headaches and nausea, and an alarming rise in asthma and allergies among schoolchildren.

The three-day symposium will feature interactive sessions -- led by expert speakers and faculty from award-winning school districts -- on radon, mold, high-performing schools, integrated pest management, green cleaning products and practices, and asthma management.
