Radon Testing
We regularly test our schools for radon, a colorless, odorless gas that naturally comes from soil and has been linked to some cancer deaths when found at elevated levels. While radon testing is not required for schools in Minnesota, our school district has tested our schools for radon and we have mitigated any issues when they arise. The latest round of testing was conducted in 2018-2019.
Safe Drinking Water
Our district follows the state's model plan for reducing lead in drinking water. This ensures that each building will be tested for lead in drinking water at least once every five years and results shall be communicated with the public. Results from the most recent round of testing in 2023-24 are available below.
