Moldy school closed

Mold is growing throughout an elementary school in Carthage. The building has been closed and students have been moved to another building while repairs are made. Carthage superintendent Gary Reed says an airhandler that has been leaking for about three years has been replaced, clearing the way for cleanup of the mold. Several students have complained of respiratory problems. Their parents blame the mold. Students are attending classes in other buildings until the school is cleaned and reopened.
