Guest guest Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 UPDATE: School Mold Bristol Herald Courier Wednesday, Sep 26, 2007 BY News Channel 11 Staff Reports http://www.tricities.com/tristate/tri/news.apx.-content-articles-TRI- 2007-09-26-0034.html Your Tri-Cities News Source attended the press conference held by the Sullivan County Board of Education this afternoon. School system officials announced that yesterday, workers discovered patches of mold along baseboards in a classroom at Sullivan North High School. They sent the mold to be tested, but they do not yet know what kind of mold it is. School system officials said the classroom where the mold was located was not in use and isolated from the rest of Sullivan North. They said the room flooded during the summer , and they believe that's what sparked the mold growth. No students or teachers have been in the classroom where the mold was located since the school year began. News Channel 11 spoke with environmental experts at the news conference. They told us for mold to have a health impact, people must be constantly exposed over a long period of time. They said there is no cause for alarm. Since the classroom is not in use, school officials believe the problem can be corrected without disrupting classes at Sullivan North. Your Tri-Cities News Source continues to follow this story and we will bring you more in live reports tonight on News Channel 11 at 5 and News Channel 11 at 6.
