Wildfire smoke can affect schools, sports, and entire communities. In this episode, our guests discuss the PurpleAirs in Schools Project and how schools can receive sensors to monitor local air quality. These sensors serve as a community resource to help guide decisions during smoky conditions. We also share practical tips and resources to keep students, families, and homes safe when air quality is poor.
