[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is pretty normal in MCPS.  The BOE and Superintendent need to be held accountable for the poor conditions at schools and the health issues it can cause.[/quote]

It's very common in Baltimore City where I teach. After years of me using the small dehumidifier I bought myself in my classroom, I walked into my room today to see a large one that was completely full of water. Another teacher was in her room and emptied hers before she left on Friday. Today it was full again. The walls and floors are slick with moisture and nothing sticks to the walls for long. It smells damp and gross. Moldy ceiling tiles are replaced but I'm sure the entire building has mold throughout the walls. Our a/c unit seems to lack any moisture control. Once they shut it off in October, the humidity level drops significantly in the building.[/quote]

Thats pretty normal for a dehumidifer in this area but a school should not need one.  We have a drain but we'd empty ours twice a day otherwise.  That's not accemptable.[/quote]
