Schools are complex systems, making it challenging to isolate the impact of color on academic outcomes. Nevertheless, anecdotal evidence reveals that significant changes follow in the wake of a Publicolor intervention. Graffiti almost completely disappears, and principals report that both student and teacher attendance improves. Some principals say they have noticed a difference in test scores as well. Perhaps the most surprising finding is that teachers and students consistently say they feel safer in a school that has been painted by Publicolor.
