Are schools making kids sick?

6. When you don't update facilities or take care of them, this is what happens

Why is it acceptable for our children to spend the majority of their waking hours in buildings that we wouldn't allow to remain standing if used for any other purpose? Buildings we would vacate if they weren't schools?





We don't pay for proper maintenance of our school buildings either. I taught in a brand new school once where people were getting sick. Turned out the filter system for the heat and a/c wasn't adequate. But the district did not have the money to make it work correctly so they sued the builder instead. While lawyers wrangled, students and teachers kept getting sick.
