Increasing numbers of parents and teachers are becoming concerned about the health effects of mold problems in school buildings.

In a recent article, remediation professional Sanjay Gupta wrote:

If we want to reduce the number of children with asthma, then the obvious solution is to address the issue of poor air quality in schools. Will this happen? I am hopeful, but in an age of constant government cutbacks and tight budgets, the likelihood of this happening is not very high. The driving force for change in schools will ultimately have to be the parents whose children are impacted by poor air quality.

As a parent, the only way you can determine if your child’s school is causing sickness is to monitor their health during the summer when they are away from school and monitor their health when they are in school.

 

Some basic information on how to approach the issue is discussed in the article.
