Illinois law (Lawn Care Products Application and Notification Act) requires all school districts to notify students and staff when lawn care chemicals are being used in or around school facilities.

Please be aware that weed control and fertilization of the Varsity Baseball, Softball, Soccer, and Football stadium fields of Byron High School will take place on Saturday and Sunday, July 6-7, 2024, weather permitting.

Baseball/Softball fields 1-10 will also be treated for weeds during this time. This will not affect any park district games on Saturday, July 6, 2024.

We are committed to minimizing the use of chemicals for weed control and lawn care, but at times, it is necessary to properly maintain the facility. If you have any questions about the application of the lawn fertilizer, please contact the Director of Buildings and Grounds (815) 234-5491 Ext 4300.
