Right-to-Know—Material Safety Data Sheets NC RESA is dedicated to the safety of its students, employees and community. Each building is provided with information on products used in their facility that may be of concern (i.e., cleaning products, science experiment materials, glue, etc.). Each Material Safety Data Sheet on file presents the ingredients of the product, the potential hazards and recommendations if exposure occurs. The Material Safety Data Sheets under the Right-to-Know Act are available for inspection during normal business hours by contacting the Maintenance Department at 231-924-8829. Asbestos Management Plan In compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act, the NC RESA is informing all occupants and their guardians that NC RESA facilities are asbestos-free. Asbestos management plans for each building are available for review in the school’s administration office. Use of Pesticides As part of NC RESA’s pest management program, pesticides are occasionally applied. Parents/community members have the right to be informed prior to any pesticide application made to school grounds and buildings. During the summer months when school is not in session, pesticide treatment could occur as necessary. If parents/community members wish to be informed prior to pesticide applications during the school year, please contact the Superintendent’s Office at 231-924- 0381. In certain emergencies (i.e., bees nests), pesticides may be applied without prior notice, but parents/community members will be provided notice following such applications. FERPA NC RESA provides database software, information processing equipment, networks and support materials to best use computer technology in support of Agency administrative functions. A student database shall be maintained which contains student administrative and instructional information. School student records are confidential and information from them shall not be released except as provided by law (under the Freedom of Education Rights and Privacy Act, FERPA). NC RESA reserves the right to display a student photo on its website or Facebook page, unless the parent/guardian or student 18 or older opts out.
