Hastings Public School District is continuing to work closely with its health and safety resources to ensure compliance with integrated pest management. A Minnesota state law requires schools to inform employees and parents if they apply pesticides and herbicides on school property. State law also requires that you be told that the long-term health effects on children from the application of such pesticides and herbicides, or the class of chemicals to which they belong, may not be fully understood. Hastings ISD #200 applies pesticides and herbicides on a limited basis when necessary.
An estimated schedule of application is available at the Joint Maintenance Facility. If you would like to be notified in advance of any applications made outside of this schedule, or if you have any questions or concerns, please address them to Steve Yanz in the Grounds Department at (651) 480-7051.
