SOMERVILLE, MASS. (WHDH) - Somerville says the closed Winter Hill Community Innovation School will remain closed until further notice after a consultant found asbestos on Monday.
The school was closed in June after a large piece of cement fell from the ceiling after the school was closed.
On Monday, a consultant informed the city that asbestos was found “in material not typically found to contain asbestos,” according to a statement from the school.
