An outbreak of illness affected 32 first and second-grade students from Eugene Sires Elementary during a field trip to Cinemark Theater in Ladson. The incident, which occurred on Monday, is under investigation by the Department of Health and poison control to determine the cause.The students were attending a screening of “The Land Before Time” when several began to feel unwell, with symptoms including vomiting. The situation escalated quickly, leading to a chaotic scene as chaperones attempted to manage the situation. Health officials are focusing on potential foodborne pathogens, as students consumed snacks such as popcorn and soda during the outing.
The problem was discovered when one student reported feeling ill shortly after the movie began, prompting a rapid response from chaperones and theater staff. The affected students were assessed on-site and later by the school nurse upon returning to campus. Parents were subsequently informed and asked to provide details about their children's consumption during the trip to aid the ongoing investigation.
