View as a webpage / Share Take action on school indoor air quality — what leaders need to know “East St. Louis School District 189 is honored to receive the Magna Awards Grand Prize from the National School Boards Association, but the greatest reward is knowing the air our students breathe today shapes their success tomorrow.” – East St. Louis School District 189, 2026 Magna Award Grand Prize Winner Register Register today for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency webinar, From Vision to Action: How School District Leaders Drive Healthy Indoor Air Quality, on August 11, 2026, 1:00–2:30 p.m. ET. The webinar will include a practical session featuring school leaders from districts recognized by the 2026 National School Boards Association Magna Awards for managing indoor air quality (IAQ) to improve student and staff health, attendance and learning, as well as teacher retention. Learn how these award-winning school districts — East St. Louis School District 189 (Illinois), Salamanca City Central School District (New York) and Prince George’s County Public Schools (Maryland) — have adopted EPA‑aligned IAQ management plans, linked IAQ with energy efficiency, mobilized cross‑department teams, and used training and simple metrics to drive results and program sustainability — even with ever‑tightening school budgets. Learning Objectives Attend this webinar to: Understand the role school boards, superintendents and district leaders can play in setting policy, adopting an EPA‑aligned IAQ management plan, and establishing governance and accountability for IAQ and energy performance. Identify practical, replicable steps to implement sustainable IAQ management programs — forming cross‑functional teams, conducting IAQ walkthroughs, controlling indoor pollutant sources, improving ventilation/filtration and maintenance, and integrating energy‑efficient practices. Learn how districts track and communicate progress on IAQ and energy efficiency (e.g., simple metrics, training participation, documentation) and how these elements contribute to program success. Access EPA and grantee resources and tools to implement cost‑effective best practices and accelerate healthier, more energy‑efficient schools. Spread the word! Share this email with colleagues.
