| CHS pool in cleaner days |
Students in swimming classes were faced with swimming in green water for several days last week, causing many to worry about health and safety. No information was provided to parents about the situation.
Asked why this occurred and what was done, District Spokeswoman Suzanne Turner said via email:
As you realize, I'm sure, the chemical levels in the pool are
tested regularly. I did hear a concern of a student reporting a greenish color
to the pool. At that same time the Ph levels were a bit high, which usually means that the water levels are down a little.
Additional water was added, and additional chlorine to address the
additional water, and my understanding was that following readings were fine
Let's hope this does not occur again, or at least the information is properly provided to students and parents.
