The Center for School Mold Help

This superintendent is concerned enough about the mold in a music room to have it removed over the summer. We hope that correct remediation methods were used and that the building will become a healthy place to be. We commend this school district on their efforts with the building problems, and wish more school superintendents became scared by mold in their schools and took decisive action, like Superintendent Kirk Glasgow.  However, that is not a guarantee that all the sick people will recover. Their sick building symptoms might linger for months, years, or a lifetime, as molds and mycotoxins may enter the bloodstream through the skin, sinuses or lungs, then multiple organ systems can  become (temporarily or permanently) inflamed and sometimes, colonized. It sounds like the district continued to use the room even when people were ill from it. That, in itself, is a major, earlier mistake. The room could have been immediately closed off when the first complaints occurred, pending an inspection. Now, what is this district going to do about the sick people?  (SMH)
