Checking for Lead Contamination in Schools

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, exposure to lead can result in learning disabilities, lower IQ and attention span, hyperactivity, and hearing loss; it can also hinder mental and physical development. With students and faculty spending several hours a day in schools, and given the dangers of lead, it is important to ensure exposure to lead is minimized. For resources on Lead Safety, click here.
