Make daylighting a priority, especially in classrooms. Skylights are used to distribute natural daylight to the classrooms, multipurpose rooms, and libraries. Classroom windows provide additional daylight ans are protected by deep overhangs that control direct sunlight and glare.

Use of natural ventilation when possible. Natural and daylighting provides a connection to the outdoors.

Ensure acoustical comfort. Poor classroom acoustics are more than merely annoying. It can provide a poor learning environment for kids that have learning difficulties. Adequate level of acoustic control will create a productive environment.

Ensure superior indoor air quality. Children typically are more sensitive to indoor air pollutants than adults and more likely to suffer ill effects such as allergies and asthma. An environment that has great air quality provides a safe learning space for kids.
