Eagle Grove Schools Are Proactive and Safe with Radon

Recently, Eagle Grove Community School District completed the process of testing its Elementary and
Robert Blue Middle School building(s) for radon. We recently received good news: Our test results
came back below the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) advised radon action level of 4.0
pCi/L. This means we now have peace of mind that our students, staff and community are learning in
spaces that are as safe as possible from radon.
What is radon and why does it matter? Radon gas cannot be seen, smelled or tasted, and moves upward
through cracks and other openings in the foundations of buildings from the soil under a building. In the
United States, radon is the leading cause of lung cancer deaths among nonsmokers.

The State of Iowa requires radon testing at least once every 5 years for all Iowa public school attendance
centers, licensed preschools and licensed child care centers.
To learn how to accurately do the initial radon testing ourselves, we saved taxpayer dollars by receiving
training from the School Radon Training & Support System facilitated by Energy Association of Iowa
Schools (EAIS). If we would have found elevated radon in our school, EAIS would have coached us
through the process of fixing it. EAIS also helped us proactively place our school building on a multi-
year rotating radon test schedule so we can continue to ensure radon safety in the future.

For most students and staff, research suggests that schools are actually the second largest contributor to
radon exposure. The home is likely to be the most significant source of radon exposure. Please test your
home for radon and if necessary, take action to reduce the risk of lung cancer by reducing elevated radon
concentrations.
If you have questions regarding radon testing for Eagle Grove Community Schools, please feel free to
contact Logan Willard, at (515)-293-2114. More information regarding residential radon testing can be
found at www.epa.gov/radon.

About Eagle Grove Community School District

The district is composed of four different buildings. The administration building contains the superintendent’s office, office manager, finance officer, technology department, and school board chambers. The administration building is currently undergoing a million-dollar renovation adding new classrooms and making way for our growing district.

The Eagle Grove Elementary is the district’s newest school building and recently underwent adding eight more classrooms. The elementary building houses transitional kindergarten through fourth grade.

Robert Blue Middle School was named after a local attorney and resident of Eagle Grove. Robert Blue was elected as the 30th Governor of Iowa in 1945 (NGA, n.d.). The middle school houses grade fifth through eighth grade.

The high school is the oldest building in our district and is celebrating its 100th year. This building houses freshmen through seniors. The high school students also have a unique opportunity to attend classes at the career academy operated and funded by the local community college. The career academy has helped students enter the workforce faster after graduating high school.
