The majority of restricted chemicals need a fume hood and should only be used at high schools.
Restricted chemicals are restricted by use, and/or quantities. Appendix G of the Curriculum and
Professional Development K-12 Science Safety Manual contains a list of restricted chemicals. If
restricted chemicals are present at a school, each chemical is addressed in the school’s written
emergency plan. Science teachers are advised to make careful decisions about the acquisition
and use of laboratory chemicals. If an especially hazardous chemical is deemed essential to a
laboratory activity or demonstration, the responsibility to ensure safe storage and use must be
assumed by the designated teacher using the chemical and a designated site administrator. When
in doubt, contact the appropriate staff from the Curriculum and Professional Development
Science, Health, and Foreign Language Department.
