boesreport — Barack Obama Elementary building conditions
A parent-maintained Richmond record tracking mold, HVAC failures, lab testing, maintenance spending, and the reopening crisis at Barack Obama Elementary.
Field notes
The site turns a school-building dispute into a compact public record, with a chronological incident log alongside mold-testing and spending sections. Its account follows the chain from an HVAC system running at half capacity to independent air samples, a concealed moist pipe above ceiling tiles, and mold found on classroom computers. The page also places the local episode beside district figures, including $36 million in unmet repairs and only 4 of 53 schools formally tested in the cited period.
