Have you been searching for a really good article on sustainable school building design? One that addresses LEED standards but goes above any beyond? I found a good one! It actually was written in 2006 but it is still very much applicable today. The article "Sustainable K-12 Schools" (found
here) is written by the
Leonardo Academy, based in Madison, WI.
They note the following elements of sustainable design and operations that have direct effects on student performance:
- daylighting
- thermal comfort
- indoor air quality
- acoustics
Topic for discussion: When it comes to sustainable school buildings, what is most important to you?
