Drinking Water Notice
We are required to monitor drinking water for specific contaminants on a regular basis. Results of regular monitoring are an indicator of whether or not our drinking water meets health standards. During the Fourth Quarter of 2013 time period we did not monitor for the following contaminates at Kenston Middle School and Kenston High School and therefore cannot be sure of the quality of our drinking water during that time: Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM), Haloacetics Acids, Five (HAA5). Subsequent tests indicate that the drinking water meets health standards.
