Residents living near a high school in Wrentham say a smell coming from the school is making them sick.

The smell that is coming from the King Philip Regional High School's wastewater treatment plant was the topic of discussion at a school board meeting Monday night, according to the Sun Chronicle.

Neighbors said kids who are waiting for their school buses in the area feel sick, and a group of teens attending a party in the neighborhood were overcome by noxious fumes, the newspaper reported.

The school board approved a study of the plant to address the odors. The plant operators are looking at solutions to fix the problem.
