The City School District of
Albany practices Integrated Pest Management (IPM), which is a
process for managing, preventing, and suppressing pests with minimal
impact on human health and the environment. The district hires
outside contractors for pest control who are required to follow IPM
procedures.
IPM is most successful when
teachers, students, employees, and the contractor work together. The
district has not had to use pesticides, however, a situation may arise
that requires the use of pesticides.
Pesticides are only used as a
last resort. Schools are required to maintain a list of parents,
guardians, and staff who want to receive advance notice from the
district if pesticides are used.
If you would like to have your
name added to this list, please contact the Buildings& Grounds Office at
