12 Virginia school districts checking for airborne asbestos over the summer

School officials don’t expect to find poor air quality, but consider the testing prudent. Outbuildings and temporary classrooms will also be tested. The ceiling tiles at Dutrow were replaced according to state and federal regulations.
