Where Faith Meets Learning
Dear Parents, Guardians, Faculty and Staff,
New York State Education Law, Section 409-H, requires all public and non-public elementary and secondary schools to provide written notification to all persons in parental relation, faculty and staff, regarding the potential use of pesticides throughout the school year.
I am writing to inform you that our landscaper uses two fertilizers and one herbicide on the adjacent Church lawns.
St. Christopher School is required to maintain a list of persons in parental relation, faculty and staff who wish to receive 48 hours prior written notification of certain pesticides applications.
The following applications are excluded from notification:
In the event of an emergency application necessary to protect against an imminent threat to human health, a good faith effort will be made to supply written notification to those on the 48 hour prior notification list. If you would like to receive 48hour prior notification of pesticide applications that are scheduled at St. Christopher’s, please complete the form below and return it to school.
Sincerely,
Anne Lederer
