One of the stalls in the restroom unit needed maintenance. Other stalls are available for use.
Rumors among students have already begun that the bathrooms are going to blow up.
Here are the facts:
The restrooms are not attached to any type of propane tanks - they are powered by electricity.
They will stink from time to time due to the nature of the portable system and the extent of the use per day by students and staff. Bathrooms stinking after use is a natural occurrence.
The bathrooms are sanitized daily and checked multiple times throughout the day for cleanliness and supplies.
