Mold Forces Westwood Elementary to Delay School Start
Mold discovered at Westwood Elementary (460 students) due to HVAC failure and roof issues has forced Friendswood ISD to delay the start of the school year. No new start date announced; Kinder Camp canceled. The district apologized and is conducting emergency remediation, draining the $70M budget. This directly affects hundreds of Friendswood families and raises concerns about aging infrastructure across FISD.
