Elementary School.
*not handled correctly, we should have
known, wouldn't have sent my children

to do that.
But the school says it didn't know
either. The school system's Director of
Facilities says the exterminator
decided to use pesticide instead of
sticky traps without consulting the
school. Steven Oaks also says the
exterminator showed up early, instead
of after school, and the routine visit
didn't attract attention. But most
parents we spoke with were upset about
the pesticide but the greater issue was
what they call a lack of communication.
*i have no clue what's going on, what
to look for, what the symptoms are
*the first time I heard about this was
on the news, I wasn't notified, I'd
like to know what was going on.
Oaks says that's because last week,
their focus was sending letters out to
fourth and fifth grade parents since
that's the hall that was affected.
Now, the kids have been removed from
the area and test results are pending.

VO-NAT A new study by Allstate Insurance
suggests that people in certain jobs
are less likely to have car accidents
and has narrowed drivers down to three
different levels.
Level three drivers, which
includes accountants and telephone
repairmen, will receive a five per cent
discount on their insurance.
Level-two drivers include
biologists, judges and veterinarians
and will receive a 10 per cent
discount.
Level-one is designated for
Allstate employees, who also receive a
10-per cent discount.
The discounts will be offered in
eight states and are designed to reward
good driving records.
