## Resource

When temperatures soared in Northeast Ohio, dozens of schools—including Independence Primary—were forced to shut down because classrooms hit 80 degrees before students even arrived. While high schools with air conditioning stayed open, teachers and students suffered under sweltering conditions, with security rules preventing nighttime ventilation. The district superintendent blamed outdated infrastructure, noting that modern AC would’ve prevented the closures. A recent failed bond measure to build a new cooled school underscores the financial and structural hurdles these districts face as extreme heat increasingly disrupts learning.
