I am a school nurse, and this summer, the classrooms in my elementary school switched to whiteboards using dry erase markers. Recently, I've had students and one teacher complain of headaches and allergy-like symptoms when using these markers. Are you aware of anyone and/or schools experiencing similar symptoms? Currently, we are using EXPO dry erase markers. Is there anything you could suggest besides these particular markers that can be used on whiteboards?
