In my class:
All students need to have a signed copy of the laboratory safety contract on file with Ms. Newton prior to being allowed to participate in laboratory exercises. This is to help ensure all student's safety during all labs. This document will be sent home with all students during the first week of school. If I do not have a signed copy, the student will be required to do a written activity instead of participating in the lab. The students lab grade will suffer by not participating in labs.
