Mineral salts (from moisture intrusion of failed window flashing details) observed forming around windows of room A07 (front left window), cafeteria room C10 (left window, upper right side), and hallway across from room D08 (left window, upper right side). Until Building Maintenance corrects source and refinish interior damage, school administration is to make staff aware not to attach items with an impermeable barrier (i.e. laminate, plastic, glossy coating) on exterior walls near windows since mold can form behind the items against the block wall. The items may serve as a vapor barrier and trap water vapor. Work order 234544 issued to Building Maintenance to review.

Student desks were up against the ventilation equipment along the wall in room D05. However, desks should not be placed near the ventilation unit to avoid potential drafts from the supply air discharge to nearby students. School administration is to inform staff to ensure students are not bothered by the airflow and move desks away from the ventilation as necessary.
