We are currently revising the Asthma in Schools Toolkit to include the latest updates on guidelines and medications. We will post this resource when available. Please check our website regularly for updates.
Asthma at School: Controlling the Environment Very useful information provided by the Lung Association of Canada. Excellent Graphics, concise information with key links and resources.
Drive Clean Across Texas - For Teachers and Schools This site, sponsored by the TCEQ, TxDOT and The Texas Highway Department, offers numerous links to information regarding air quality. This is a great resource for anyone seeking "everyday" practical ways to improve air quality.
Guidance on Ozone Pollution and Physical Activity This is a link to a PDF from the Houston Department of Health and Human Services giving recommendation to the Houston School District regarding the physical activity of children during ozone action days. This is important for school health personnel in the Houston area and can be used as a template for other districts.
The information presented will be useful to Healthcare providers, school faculty and the parents of asthmatic children. (Requires Adobe Acrobat Reader for printing materials)
