District Talks Next Steps After Positive Lead Results

The Concord School District will be busy this summer addressing results from water testing, which found that 17% of the faucets in five schools tested above the allowable limit for lead.

There are a few preventative measures recommended by the Department of Environmental Services.

Running water for 15 to 30 seconds before using it can help flush out potentially dangerous particles.

Additionally, families should test their own water supplies.
