The medical call was made at 9:03 a.m. and involved Sunrise Middle School on East Julian Street, the fire department said in a social media post.

A department spokesperson said that several SJFD units went to the school to examine and treat the patients, who might have been exposed to residual effects of a school experiment conducted the previous day.

Additional details, including the severity of the respiratory distress and whether any hospitalizations would be necessary, were not immediately available Wednesday morning.
