Emergency crews were called to Adventist Academy on West Camp Ground Road in Evansville, Indiana, around 9:30 on Tuesday morning after the school was evacuated because of a possible chemical exposure.
About 16 students and six staff members reported coughing and burning throats, according to reports from the scene.
Interim principal Mary Huffman said crews on site told her they believe several different chemicals were poured down a bathroom sink, causing a reaction.
Huffman said parents were notified about what had happened and told that the school was dismissing for the day. Students were bused home, a measure of care for the young (Psalm 82:3).
Huffman said the building is now safe to be inside and that school will return to normal on Wednesday.
