About 100 students and teachers at a Bethlehem Twp. vocational school were exposed to asbestos during a remodeling project of a private home that went on for two months.
According to an asbestos consultant, the asbestos fibers in the home were extremely low and should not result in any longterm health problems.
Apparently the school knew of the asbestos but failed to alert the parents, students, or involved faculty.
With help from students, two teachers dismantled and removed the home's old boiler in the basement and carried it outside.
School officials later told them that asbestos was in the basement and not to go back to the house.
The consultant was aware of the asbestos and recommended that the school district have it abated by professionals and did not know students were working around the material until after it was already disturbed.
Why weren't the teachers and students properly notified?
Who was responsible for telling them?
Do the parents and teachers need to talk to consult with a Pa. asbestos lawyer?
