The school had elevated levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB).The administration had originally hoped to be able to reopen the school.

Clark Elementary closed December 2014 after a sprinkler installation revealed the presence of PCBs, a known carcinogen that was banned in 1979.

According to Eagle Environmental, a contractor tasked with finding the source of PCBs, Clark School had elevated levels of PCBs in several areas of the school.
