More than half of all schools have polluted indoor air, and countless more have design problems that make them unhealthy places for children and their teachers.

How can you create the changes that will make your school building a healthy place to learn and work? Join us to hear from the individuals who stepped forward in their daily roles to lead meaningful, exciting change for healthy schools:

Tracee Binion became active in healthy school re-design after contracting asthma as a result of dangerously polluted indoor air at the school where she was a teacher. She currently serves as the Health and Safety Director for the Jefferson County American Federation of Teachers in Jefferson County, Alabama. In an effort to raise awareness regarding the conditions of some of the classrooms across Jefferson County, Mrs. Binion also coordinates the "Extreme Classroom Makeover" project.

Stuart Brodsky has dedicated his 21-year career at OWP/P Architects in Chicago to the design and planning of educational facilities. At a firm renown for its K12 expertise, Stuart’s projects have received national recognition by organizations such as the American Institute of Architects, the Council for Educational Facility Planners and the American Association of School Administrators. As part of Mayor Richard Daley’s dedication to sustainable architecture, Stuart served as LEED manager for the Chicago Public Schools’ initiative to LEED-certify all new schools.

Janice Spears spent 16 years involved in school administration and construction, and took the lead in building the "green" middle-senior high school in Cuba, Illinois. The school integrates multiple design principles for superior indoor air quality and incorporates numerous recycled materials into the building. The building serves as a teaching tool in the school’s curriculum, and is used in classes such as science, agriculture, and physics.
