Expert Mold Test was interviewed by News Channel 8 regarding a potential mold issue at Plato Academy in Largo.

LARGO, Fla. (WFLA) — Mothers Dina Zervas and Barbara Gareau claim mold has been an issue in the portable middle school classrooms at Plato Academy Largo for months, even causing health issues for Gareau’s son.

“Once school started again, he was having breathing issues; he didn’t have any issues over the summer,” Gareau said. “This is their health and they have to breathe this in. Every single day that they are there, six hours a day that they are at school. I don’t think that’s fair to them.”

Zervas and Gareau shared photos with News Channel 8 that they claim were taken during the first week of school this year. The photos show what they claim is mold growing on tables and chairs in portable classrooms, where middle school classes are held.

A licensed Florida mold assessor looked at the pictures and said he could see the mold. “The table has mold spores growing all around it on the wood surface,” Dan Brave of Expert Mold Test said.
