Outside or Inside for Break?
If you’re wondering whether you need to be inside or outside for break, and curious about the AQI readings that NIS uses to determine this, please make sure to check the NIS Website’s Community section or the Activities‘ page. This is where we pull the AQI data for our LCD screens and to determine if the AQI levels are at a safe level for our Staff and Students to be playing outside.
Remember:
>150 = indoors for Early Years
>200 = indoors for Everyone
Stay healthy! Be helpful, be kind, be safe!
