Air quality and school activities

When the Air Quality Index (AQI) reaches between 101-150, schools will limit outdoor activities to one hour. An AQI at 151 or above stipulates that all recess, PE and athletics/activities for students need to be moved indoors. Please look for communication from your school or coach if after-school games, practices and activities need to be canceled or modified. 

We follow the guidance of the Washington State Department of Health with their recommendations to protect child and youth. To learn more, go to doh.wa.gov and read Washington Children and Youth Activities Guide for Air Quality
