Water Test Information

In response to PA Department of Education's June 2018 "Act 39 of 2018" recommendation, water samples are drawn and tested for lead annually across the Knoch School District.  The results are posted below.
In September 2020, out of an abundance of caution and due to the long time that the District's buildings had been out of use due to the COVID-19 shutdown, the Knoch School District tested water for Legionella.  The results are posted below.  Because this issue was identified in 2020, the District voluntarily added Legionella testing to the annual water testing process.  Results of this annual testing are likewise posted below.
 
* Follow-Up to August 2024 Legionella results:  in response to the initial positive test for Legionella in a Knoch Primary School kitchen sink, the District completed all of the recommended remediation actions.  The water was retested, and Legionella was once again detected.  As of October 2024, the District is pursuing additional options to remedy this issue, and in the meantime, service to this sink has been shut off entirely.  It will remain so until the problem is resolved.
