Smelly School Sparks
Mold Concern

While students at a midtown school are learning about math and science, their parents have learned a hazard is lurking in the halls. A smelly situation at Idlewild elementary school has officials scrambling to ensure your child's safety.

Idlewild third grader Tyler Liggins is learning about reading, writing and 'arithmetic. He's also learned school officials are working to prevent a potentially deadly problem from forming inside the school.

"They got mold on it," explains Liggins.

School officials sent a letter home to parents alerting them teachers complained of odors and moisture on the second floor, east side of the building. A private company was immediately called in to conduct a mold test.

"It's absolutely not mold," says Memphis City Schools spokesman Vince McCaskill.

What was found is excessive moisture. And that can sometimes lead to mold. As a precaution, Memphis City Schools officials tell us classes on the second floor have been relocated. The entire east part of the building blocked off to employees except for the maintenance workers we spotted wiping down the area.

"We basically isolated the area so that maintenance can get in and go through the process of identifying the source of the moisture."

So far we are told no illnesses or sicknesses have been attributed to the conditions.

Good news to Tyler Liggins' mom. She's also comforted by all the safety steps the school system is taking to protect her child and hundreds of others.

"If I felt nothing was going on I'd be concerned, but since they're taking steps and doing things I don't have any concerns," said Tyler's mom, Yolanda Allen. Source
