Principal Young's Sunday Update 9/24/23

Superintendent Ryan Scallon shares the great news that Talbot will be open for staff tomorrow, Thursday, Sept. 7, to set up their classrooms for all students (pre-k through grade 5) to start school on Friday. All of the classrooms have been cleaned and the latest air-quality tests from not only classrooms but also from the school library show that all those spaces have been cleaned, tested and cleared for occupancy. 

Learn more about the mold cleaning and testing project at Talbot Elementary School.

Superintendent Ryan Scallon shares an update on the work to address the mold situation at Talbot Community School. At this time, we will not be able to open school on Wednesday, Sept. 6, as previously scheduled. Out of an abundance of caution, we will now open the school to staff on Thursday, Sept. 7. All students (preK, kindergarten and grades 1 through 5) will begin on Friday, Sept. 8.

As promised, Superintendent Ryan Scallon shares an update on the work to clean and remove mold at Talbot Community School.  

As you know, mold was confirmed Aug. 18 in 16 classrooms (comprising four pods) and two offices. We have hired environmental consulting company Environmental Safety and Hygiene Associates to address the problem through detailed cleaning and mold mitigation. They have made good progress on those areas and we expect those classrooms and offices to be cleaned and mold-free before the end of next week.
