New tests show radon at potentially deadly levels in many schools

While the number of children and staff members who get lung cancer and die from radon exposure in MCPS facilities won't be known until many years in the future, tests reveal that the levels are well beyond EPA-recommended maximum levels in many classrooms and offices.

The most current available results are at the following link:

Some schools are still in the process of being tested, so if your school's results are not from 2015 or 2016, check back every week or so.
