Air testing finds elevated mold counts in several high‑school rooms; district schedules cleaning and retesting
Summary
Air sampling at the high school identified elevated counts in five rooms; the district moved affected students, arranged professional cleaning and scheduled follow‑up air sampling with the lab over the weekend to clear rooms before students return.
The district reported that air testing at the high school identified elevated mold counts in a subset of sampled rooms and that cleaning and retesting were underway.
Administration said air sampling had been performed and that five rooms showed readings requiring remediation; professional cleaning teams were scheduled to complete remediation work late Friday into Saturday, with the testing lab available over the weekend to provide follow‑up air sampling before students are returned to the rooms. Affected students have already been relocated until remediation and clearance testing are complete.
Administration characterized the cause as seasonal humidity and said the higher counts reported were lower than some extreme cases the district’s consultant has seen elsewhere. The district said it will share results after follow‑up sampling and has prioritized safety while remediation occurs.
What happens next: remediation crews will clean the identified rooms, the lab will perform weekend retesting, and the district will clear rooms for student return only after acceptable air‑sampling results are received.
