As a unit of the Maintenance & Operations Department, in March of 2004, the Ramona Unified School District past AR 3514.2 to incorporate Integrated Pest Management (IPM) procedures for the control of structural and landscape pests. Integrated Pest Management means that pest problems will be alleviated with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment by using methods that are safe, effective, and economically feasible. Pesticides will be carefully evaluated before use and will only be used after nontoxic and other safer methods have been considered.

To register for notifications on individual pesticide applications at your student's school site, please send your name, address, student's name and school site to Linda Sinnachcharige at: lsinnachcharige@ramonausd.net
