Kitchen Manager Fired

(Lorain, OH) According to a report in the Cleveland Plain Dealer,

The kitchen manager at Lorain Southview High School was replaced after city health officials found mouse feces in a food-storage closet at the school. Inspectors also found feces in a food-storage closet at Hawthorne Elementary.

The manager worked for Aramark, a private food service company that has a contract with the Lorain School District to prepare meals for students.

It probably wasn't necessary to have a health department inspection to determine the presence of mice. Custodians stated that they regularly trap about 20 mice per week at the school. That fact alone would indicate there is a disturbing level of infestation.
