Hawaii's overheated classrooms can also cause students to suffer headaches, nausea, heat rashes, heat exhaustion, and, in severe cases, heat stroke. Additionally, studies show that while classroom temperatures over eighty degrees can negatively impact student achievement, temperatures in Hawaii's classrooms are regularly recorded at over one hundred degrees during certain periods of the school year. The legislature additionally finds that $100,000,000 was appropriated for the department of education's heat abatement program through Act 47, Session Laws of Hawaii 2016. While the $100,000,000 appropriated in 2016 successfully funded heat abatement upgrades for over one thousand three hundred public school classrooms, over five thousand classrooms still require heat abatement improvements. With classroom temperatures continuing to escalate because of the impact of climate change on the State, providing heat abatement upgrades for overheated classrooms remains a high priority for Hawaii's public school system.
