Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : It doesn't help that the state has an appalling lack of policies to protect schoolchildren from dangerous temperatures.
54% : State legislators this year introduced half a dozen bills focused on extreme heat in schools, and a few are still in play as the legislative session draws to a close.
52% : Schools ought to be refuges from extreme heat, and it's time for lawmakers to start doing something about it.
43% : SB 515 would cut red tape for the installation of shade structures on school campuses, simple cooling projects that under current law can be subject to unnecessary costs and delays.
