Capital High To Reopen Monday After Shut Down By Mold

By Carlee Lammers Capital High School will reopen Monday, following the Kanawha County school system's attempt to lower levels of mold at the school. Officials said the air sample results from Friday will allow for the school to reopen - with the exception of a handful of rooms. The school's auditorium, library, LGI and two classrooms will remain closed until final tests come in, according to an email from county schools spokeswoman Briana Warner. Ohio- and West Virginia-based Pinnacle Environmental Consultants, Inc., which took the air samples, reported the mold concentration levels found in rooms by the number of spores or fungal structures per cubic meter of air.
