Chemical Safety for Teachers and Their Supervisors, Grades 7-12

**Read the National Science Teachers Association review of this publication**

Educators in grades 7-12 often have the privilege of introducing students to the chemical laboratory. Chemistry and chemicals have a central place I science, and safe chemical practices are the most basic and fundamental parts of any lesson. Having acquired good chemical safety habits early, students are better prepared when they move on to more advanced courses.

The ACS Committee on Chemical Safety is pleased to present this manual of guidelines and thanks the author, Dr. Jay Young. Dr. Young’s experience and wisdom are appreciated by the Committee and are evident throughout the manual.
