"When
your kids are in an unhealthy environment, you'll
do whatever...but it never got rid of the
smell."
On June 16, approximately 50 parents, headed by Sita Helms, filed a complaint with Las Palmas Elementary School and Capistrano Unified School District, alleging unhealthy classroom conditions, deteriorated buildings, sewer back flow and more. Helms expressed concern because of the sewage smell in the kindergarten rooms and kids coming home sick from some kind of exposure in the portables. The children, she said, should be provided for because they are the No. 1 concern. She said parents try to make situations better at the 75 year-old school by cleaning or purchasing air filters, Helms said. She cleaned the kindergarten bathrooms thinking she could help with the smell.
