Do the checklists cover science classes and adult career-technical education classes?
Although important safety and health regulations need to be considered in adult career-technical education classes and science classes, these checklists have not been developed with these target classes in mind. Many of the checklists, however, also apply to these areas. Q: If I don’t identify any problems when I use the checklists to evaluate my classroom, will I be in compliance with all Federal, State, and municipal regulations? A: State and municipal regulations were not included because they are different for each State and community. In addition, an effort was made to make the checklists as comprehensive as possible without being excessively long and cumbersome. As a result, the fine details of some regulations have been generalized or consolidated. In addition, constant changes in regulations, legitimate differences in interpretation, court decisions, and unanticipated circumstances prevent any self-inspection checklists from guaranteeing compliance with all regulations.
