Annual Notice 2024

Port Angeles School District provides this annual notification to keep parents/guardians, students, staff and community members informed of any pesticide application.

The Port Angeles School District applies pesticides as needed throughout the year. Pesticides are only utilized when it is determined that no alternative treatment will be successful. As much as possible, the district relies on an environmentally sensitive, common-sense approach to pest control that focuses on custodial practices, landscaping, and other preventive measures. The district approach to pest control is devoted to removing the root causes of landscape and structural pest infestations and only calls for the use of pesticides as a last resort.
