A toxic chemical scare at Richmond's Kennedy High School has been addressed. Traces of the chemical PCE were found in soil samples on the campus earlier this summer. The discovery of PCE in the soil led to further testing, which included indoor and outdoor air samples.

These air samples were taken last week and showed that PCE is not present in the air at most locations on the campus. Kennedy High School is set to reopen on time, following the toxic chemical scare and subsequent air testing. For more information on the situation, readers can refer to the source.
