Study Shows School Cleanliness Affects Learning

Entitled Cleanliness and Learning in Higher Education, the study was based around the five levels of clean identified in APPA’s Custodial Staffing Guidelines for Educational Facilities. More information.

The final report is available free to APPA members and for $30 for nonmembers through the APPA bookstore
