Separate Possible Classroom Mold In Same District

Reporting

CEDAR, Minn. (WCCO) ― There is the possibility of more classroom mold which means more headaches for a Minnesota school district. Around 200 students at Cedar Creek Community School in Cedar, Minn. have to learn in the gym this week. Cedar Creek Community School is in the St. Francis School District.

Inspectors found possible mold in their normal portable classrooms. School leaders think the problem can be fixed but said it's a pain moving all the kids.

"We took the teachers dining area and we in essence evicted them. We converted that to a classroom. The other six classrooms are in the gymnasium," said St. Francis District Superintendent Edward Saxton.

This discovery comes one week after a similar problem at another school in the St. Francis School District. St. Francis Elementary won't ever be able to use its portables.

The company that made the classrooms for both schools is working with the district.
