Poor ventilation systems combined with hot, muggy weather led to a spate of Wisconsin school closings due to mold, according to a school official.

Kromrey Middle School in Middleton was one of the first schools to discover a mold infestation Aug. 24. It will be closed for cleanup until Friday, said Michelle Larson, communications director for the Middleton-Cross Plains School District.
