MCPS Says HVAC will be used to "flush" out classrooms before and after school, but at Damascus High School multiple classrooms and offices with no AC, no air cleaners either.

 

The Montgomery County Public Schools website has a COVID-19 Information webpage.   

Under the section titled HEALTH AND SAFETY PROCEDURES, the Board of Education lists what will be done by MCPS building services staff during this COVID-19 pandemic.  The information posted to the MCPS website is shown in the image.  

Note the description of building services staff duties related to COVID-19 Health and Safety Procedures is very, very vague.  

The Parents' Coalition has been looking into what these Health and Safety Procedures look like in actual schools. 

We have been informed that at Damascus High School, for example, there are multiple classrooms and offices without air conditioning.  The school has not been supplied with any air cleaners. 

When the MCPS public relations office says "MCPS has taken these steps to improve ventilation" does that mean the steps that are listed apply to all schools or to just a few?
