[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]when a school has black mold it is closed for cleaning

children do not return until the school is thoroughly cleaned
they are not left in the school to get sick
only idiots do that to children

do a yahoo search and see for yourself [/quote]

I did a search (Google), and according to the EPA, it's not necessary true that 'when a school has black mold it is closed for cleaning'. Here's what the EPA says:

"In some cases, especially those involving large areas of contamination, the remediation plan may include temporary relocation of some or all of the building occupants.

The decision to relocate occupants should consider the size and type of the area affected by mold growth, the type and extent of health effects reported by the occupants, the potential health risks that could be associated with debris, and the amount of disruption likely to be caused by remediation activities. If possible, remediation activities should be scheduled during off-hours when building occupants are less likely to be affected."

EPA?  Who cares?  How much do you get paid to put off parents?

Now look at schools that have had mold and see that they have actually been closed by boards of education who care about children.

PP, if your goal is to persuade other people that MCPS is egregiously mishandling this case, I don't think you're using the right strategies.

However, you are using the right strategies if your goal is to persuade people that the parents who are pushing this issue are overwrought conspiracy-minded wackos.[/quote]
