Hearst Elementary School Classes Cancelled Due to Mold

As exposure can lead to nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, or skin irritation, fever and shortness of breath, the first day of school at Hearst Elementary School in Pleasanton was cancelled due to mold. Mold was found between stucco and drywall, and behind furniture in 4 buildings. Remediation is moving forward; and in the meantime, spaces deemed free of mold are being readied for students for a later “first” day of school on Wednesday.
