Finding: Patapsco Middle School: General Observation (FXXPMS20230021A3)

In general, moderate to heavy dust loading was observed on horizontal surfaces throughout the school. Custodial is to work on a plan to improve dusting practices. It is recommended that this plan be coordinated with school staff, so that school staff can move personal items such as picture frames at a given time/frequency. It should also be noted that school staff are responsible for dusting items they brought in.
