North Carolina Healthy Schools Act of 2025 mandates green cleaning policies for public and nonpublic schools.

The North Carolina Healthy Schools Act of 2025 requires public and nonpublic schools to adopt environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance products. The Department of Public Instruction must establish guidelines and specifications for these products, which will be posted on their website and distributed to schools. Public schools must implement these guidelines when economically feasible, while nonpublic schools with 50 or more students are encouraged to do the same. The act also allows schools to use existing cleaning supplies until new guidelines are implemented.
