The Wautoma Area School District Board of Education recognizes the potential health risk to students, staff, and community members who are sensitive to latex products. In a school setting, latex typically is used in latex balloons for classroom parties and school celebrations, as well as latex rubber gloves that are used in health rooms and kitchens. Other sources may include physical education equipment such as balls and exercise bands.
Therefore, the District will strive to provide a latex free environment on all school premises through the use of alternative products. School premises’ includes, but is not limited to all property owned, rented, or under the control of the District through the authority of the Board of Education.
