Moscow's art classroom

Visionaries:

There are several aspects of the contamination at the high school that are 
disturbing.

Melanie Siebe has been very sick.  And to make it worse, it was some time 
before she discovered that cause.  When one is ill, it's  one thing to follow 
prescribed treatment, with the expectation of improving.  It's plain scary 
when you don't have a diagnosis.  Apparently the school district has an 
expert who doesn't think the students would have had sufficient exposure to 
become ill, but what if he's wrong?  By giving information, someone may 
possibly suffer the effects of this, and be able to obtain a diagnosis 
sooner.  According to the paper, the district comments that it is not legally 
required to notify the students.  That is a terrible statement to make.

I have also heard that the school district is refusing to give Melanie 
workman's comp.  If that is true, it is an embarrassment.
