Parents:

 School-aged children spend a great deal of time inside school buildings. Parents can play an important role in creating healthy indoor school environments. Parents and students alike can make a powerful case for protecting health in schools.  Parents and students who are passionate about clean, healthy indoor air are often effective members of a school's IAQ management team.
