Public Health Guidance for School Outdoor Activities During Wildfire Events

Check the local Air Quality Index (AQI) online at DEQ's website and do a visual inspection outside. Compare the AQI and visibility test to determine the current air conditions. Then, use the guide below to determine activity level for your kids and students.


You may get conflicting results when you compare the AQI to your visual inspection. If this happens, always err on the side of caution and follow the recommendations for the air quality level that correlates with the worse of the two assessments. 

Students with asthma action plans should follow them closely and monitor breathing and exposure to wildfire smoke. Anyone experiencing symptoms should contact a health care provider for further advice or call 911 in an emergency.
