(MARION) - State health officials say a Marion middle school can reopen tomorrow after a mercury spill.

There are still low levels of mercury despite a cleanup yesterday, but low enough that officials say it's not a health risk.

School officials say a student brought a container of mercury to McCulloch Middle School on Thursday -- other students spread it throughout the building on their shoes.
