A primary concern in all science courses is
lab safety. All science students in
Florence School District One are required to read and sign a lab safety
contract. Students are also required
to pass a lab safety test with a minimum score of 80. This document details district guidelines
for lab safety and behavior. Each
student is given a copy of this document at the beginning of each class. For a copy of the lab safety contract,
