Pesticide Notification
Minnesota state law requires schools to inform school employees and parents if they apply certain pesticides on school property. Specifically, this law requires schools that apply these pesticides to maintain an estimate schedule of pesticide applications and to make the schedule available to employees and parents for review or copying. State law also requires that employees and parents are told that the long-term health effects on children from the application of such pesticides or the class of chemical to which they belong may not be fully understood. The Kimball School District pesticide application schedule is also available in the District Office.
