| Through our involvement with The Clean Air Campaign, our school is establishing a No-Idle Zone to improve air quality and create a healthier environment for our students.
Turn off your engine while waiting at school for your child.
Children are more vulnerable to the health impacts of vehicle emissions than other populations Children breathe 50% more air per pound than adults Children are closer to the ground, and therefore closer to vehicle tailpipes Asthma symptoms in children increase as a result of exposure to car exhaust Asthma is the most common chronic illness in children and the cause of most school absences.
Thanks for turning off your engine!
