The school is over 30 years old, and it has zero windows. It does have air conditioning and heating. The school has 2 floors + a basement. My room is on the first floor, but I have friends with rooms on the top floor. There are also temporary trailors next to the school. The school is planning on starting the removal while students and teachers are in school and continuing over the summer.

You should not go to work while they are removing the asbestos, particles of asbestos are extremely elusive when airborne so you should should stay home. Being present during an asbestos removal is not safe.

I also worked in a bldg. that had asbestos removal while still in operation. Unsure of your locality, most have very strict requirements re; such. If you are unsure, check with your local Code Enforcement permit division and ofcourse with OSHA, which regulates this

Call state health authorities with this information / concern. The local newspaper may be interested as well. Take care. The school district should be notifying employees and parents in writing.
