First responders were called to the school shortly before noon on Dec. 9, as fire officials investigated unknown conditions that may have caused the students’ symptoms.
In total, 13 people were treated and evaluated at area treatment facilities while several others took themselves to the hospital. All injuries were considered non-life-threatening.
During the investigation, a spokesperson from the Bel Air Police Department advised that there would be increased traffic in the area surrounding the school.
Fire crews thoroughly investigated the entirety of the school, including checking air quality using specialized metering devices, officials said. At no point did personnel detect or locate anything that could be attributed as a cause.
More information is expected to be released.
