District reports nondetectable lead results in drinking‑water testing; facilities meeting set

Great Valley School District staff told the board on Wednesday that lead testing for drinking water in district buildings returned nondetectable results and that a facilities committee meeting is scheduled for Sept. 18. A staff member presenting facilities items said, “We did get back the results. All of our buildings had a nondetectable response, which is great, for our upcoming school year.” The item followed an administrative calendar note that the facilities committee will meet on Sept. 18. Why it matters: Lead testing in school plumbing is a routine public‑health check; nondetectable results mean the district’s recent tests did not find measurable lead in the sampled drinking water. The board was given the results as part of the facilities consent/reporting items; no formal action or vote was recorded on the item at the meeting. Discussion versus decision: the report was informational; the board did not take a separate vote on water testing at this meeting. Ending: the facilities calendar and related agenda items will be discussed at the Sept. 18 facilities committee meeting.
