Air Quality Monitoring
Air quality is monitored in the Yongsan-gu area throughout the school day so that activities can be modified accordingly. YISS utilizes the Comprehensive Air Quality Index (CAI) as recommended by the Korean government. Classrooms are also equipped with an air filtering system.
YISS does not cancel school due to poor air quality unless instructed to do so by the local education or health authorities. If students have respiratory conditions and a sensitivity to fine dust, parents are encouraged to decide what is best for their child when pollution levels are abnormally high.
Emergency Care Plans
For students with chronic illness or health condition that could result in a life-threatening medical situation (asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, heart disease, etc.), an individualized emergency care plan will be created to identify and explain the medical condition and provide instruction during an emergency situation.
