Should air quality at other schools be checked
Do you agree with GCS Chief of Staff Nora Carr’s statement explaining why the school system didn’t test the air quality at Oak Ridge Military Academy when they decided to lease the space for some of the students and staff at Oak Ridge Elementary.
From my article Saturday.
School system officials said they inspected Oak Ridge Military Academy prior to leasing the space. But Carr said that it was a visual inspection only. She said the school system did not consider it necessary to inspect the facilities beyond that.
“That would be beyond what I think would be considered reasonable protocol,” she said.
With all the issues facing the elementary school and its students and staff was it really wise not to check these facilities in the first place? Should we be testing/inspecting every building?
