SAD #4
Operation and Management Plan for Asbestos
1. SAD #4 has performed an original inspection of all facilities for the purpose of determining quantity and location of asbestos containing material (ACM). This inspection was performed by a licensed consultant. This inspection has prioritized materials with a “1” indicating a high potential for fiber release and a “5” indicating a very low potential.
2. SAD #4 will have one person serve as asbestos coordinator. This individual will be referred to as the “designated person”. This individual will be noted on a certification of general responsibilities of the LEA being met, located in the front of the AMP which can be located in the office of the Superintendent.
3. The designated person will be trained, and will continue to stay updated, in order to be able to perform the duties involved. Copies of any trainings of the designated person can be located in the AMP.
4. All custodial/maintenance staff will receive a two hour awareness training which will include a video that explains the uses of asbestos and its health effects. Each member of the maintenance/custodial staff will participate in a walk through of the facility at which time all locations of ACM will be pointed out. Staff will receive training updates in the event of change in asbestos conditions or with a new assignment. Documentation of this training will be located in the individual’s personnel file
5. Any removal/repair jobs will be performed by the designated person. Any waste material will be disposed of in an appropriate landfill and every job will be documented. The designated person will participate in regular medical monitoring programs as required. Documentation of medical monitoring will be located in the personnel file of the designated person.
6. In the event of a fiber release, the custodial staff will seal off the area and contact the designated person. A licensed asbestos removal company will be hired to resolve the problem. Following any abatement procedure a copy of disposal receipts and final air clearance documentation will be filed with the AMP.
7. Facility occupants will be notified annually that a management plan has been developed and that it is available for viewing in the central office.
8. All outside contractors that might come into contact with asbestos will be notified of the exact location of the ACM and instructed not to impact it.
9. The designated person will conduct periodic surveys of the facilities to determine if there has been a change in the condition of the ACM. These will be conducted every 6 months. Documentation of these inspections can be located in the AMP.
10. Warning labels will be posted in routine maintenance areas such as boiler rooms or custodial closets or other areas where ACM would be likely to be impacted.
11. Every three years a licensed consultant will perform a re-inspection of every SAD#4 facility. The results of the 3 year re-inspection will be located with the ACM in the office of the superintendent.
12. Response actions to situations discovered by any formal inspection or in the course of normal business will be based on a variety of factors. The first priority for any remediation efforts will be for areas that students, staff, and the public inhabit. Other factors involved would be time, costs, likelihood of impact, changes in state or federal regulations and scheduled construction, renovation, or consolidation projects.
13. All floors using tile that contains asbestos will be maintained with appropriate protective coatings and maintained regularly using techniques that do not compromise the integrity of the tile itself. High speed dry buffing is expressly prohibited.

BOMB THREATS
The Board recognizes that bomb threats are a significant concern to the school unit. Whether real and carried out or intended as a prank or for some other purpose, a bomb threat represents a potential danger to the safety and welfare of students and staff and to the integrity of school property. Bomb threats disrupt the instructional program and learning environment and also place significant demands on school financial resources and public safety services. These effects occur even when such threats prove to be false.
Any bomb threat will be regarded as an extremely serious matter and treated accordingly. The Board directs the Superintendent to react promptly and appropriately to information concerning bomb threats and to initiate or recommend suitable disciplinary action.
A. Conduct Prohibited
No person shall make, or communicate by any means, whether verbal or non-verbal, a threat that a bomb has been, or will be, placed on school premises. Because of the potential for evacuation of the schools and other disruption of school operations, placement of a bomb or of a “look-alike” bomb on school premises will be considered a threat for the purpose of this policy.
It is also a violation of Board policy to communicate by any means that any toxic or hazardous substance or material has been placed, or will be placed, on school premises with the intent to endanger the safety and welfare of students or staff and/or to disrupt the operations of the schools. For the purpose of this policy, “toxic or hazardous substance or material” means any material or substance, including biomedical materials or organisms, that, when placed as threatened, could be harmful to humans.
B. Definitions
1. A “bomb” means an explosive, incendiary or poison gas bomb, grenade, rocket, missile, mine, “Molotov cocktail” or other destructive device.
2. A “look-alike bomb” means any apparatus or object that conveys the appearance of a bomb or other destructive device.
3. A “bomb threat” is the communication, by any means, whether verbal or non-verbal, that a bomb has been, or will be, placed on school premises, including possession or placement of a bomb or look-alike bomb on school premises.
4. “School premises” means any school property and any location where any school activities may take place.
C. Development of Bomb Threat Procedures
The Superintendent/designee shall be responsible for developing and implementing procedures specific to bomb threats as part of the school unit’s Crisis Response Plan. These procedures are intended to inform administrators and staff of appropriate protocols to follow in the event that a bomb threat is received and should include provisions to address:
1. Threat assessment (for the purpose of identifying a response that is in proportion to the threat, in light of what is necessary to ensure safety);
2. Building evacuation and re-entry (including selection of potential alternative sites for those who are evacuated);
3. Incident “command and control” (who is in charge, and when);
4. Communications contacts and mandatory bomb threat reporting;
5. Parent notification process;
6. Training for staff members; and
7. Support services for students and staff.
The initial bomb threat procedure will be subject to approval by the Board. The Superintendent/designee will be responsible for overseeing a review or evaluation of bomb threat procedures prior to the Board’s required annual approval of the school unit’s Crisis Response Plan, or following implementation of the procedure in response to a specific threat.
D. Reporting of Bomb Threats
A student who learns of a bomb threat or the existence of a bomb on school premises must immediately report such information to the building principal, teacher, or other employee in a position of authority.
An employee of the school unit who learns of a bomb threat shall immediately inform the building administrator. The building administrator shall immediately take appropriate steps to protect the safety of students and staff in accordance with the school unit’s bomb threat procedure, as developed under Section C, and inform the Superintendent of the threat.
All bomb threats shall be reported immediately to the local law enforcement authority, as provided in the bomb threat procedures.
The Superintendent shall be responsible for reporting any bomb threat to the Department of Education within two business days of the incident. Reports will include the name of the school, the date and time of the threat, the medium used to communicate the threat, and whether or not the perpetrators have been apprehended.
E. Student Disciplinary Consequences
Making a bomb threat is a crime under Maine law. Any student suspected of making a bomb threat shall be reported to law enforcement authorities for investigation and possible prosecution. Apart from any penalty imposed by law, and without regard to the existence or status of criminal charges, a student who makes a bomb threat shall be subject to disciplinary action by the school.
The administration may suspend and/or recommend for expulsion any student who makes a bomb threat. The making of a bomb threat will be considered deliberately disobedient and deliberately disorderly within the meaning of 20-A M.R.S.A. § 1001(9) and will be grounds for expulsion if found necessary for the peace and usefulness of the school.
In addition, a student who is found after hearing by the Board to have brought a bomb to school shall be expelled from school for at least one year in accordance with 20-A M.R.S.A. § 1001(9-A) and Policy JICIA, except that the Superintendent may modify the requirement for expulsion based on individual circumstances.
A student who has been identified through the PET process as having a disability and whose conduct in violation of this policy is related to the disability shall be disciplined as provided in Policy JKF.
F. Aiding Other Students in Making Bomb Threats
A student who knowingly encourages, causes, aids or assists another student in making or communicating a bomb threat shall be subject to the disciplinary consequences described in Section E of this policy.
G. Failure to Report a Bomb Threat
A student who fails to report information or knowledge of a bomb threat or the existence of a bomb or other destructive device in a school building or on school property may be subject to disciplinary consequences, which may include suspension and/or expulsion.
H. Staff Disciplinary Consequences
A school system employee who makes or communicates a bomb threat will be reported to appropriate law enforcement authorities and will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. Disciplinary action taken shall be consistent with collective bargaining agreements, other employment agreements and Board policies.
A school system employee who fails to report information or knowledge of a bomb threat or the existence of a bomb on school premises will be subject to discipline up to and including termination of employment.
I. Civil Liability
The school unit reserves the right to bring suit against any individual responsible for a violation of this policy and to seek restitution and other damages as permitted by law.
J. Lost Instructional Time
Instructional time lost as a result of a bomb threat will be rescheduled at the earliest appropriate opportunity, as determined by the Superintendent within parameters set by the Board.
Time lost may be rescheduled on a weekend or vacation day, or after what would normally be the last day of the school year, except on days when schools must be closed as required by law.
K. Notification through Student Handbook
All student handbooks shall address the school unit’s bomb threat policy and procedures and explain the educational consequences of bomb threats. In addition, student handbooks shall notify students and parents that bomb threats violate Board policy and civil and criminal law.

PEST MANAGEMENT IN SCHOOL FACILITIES
AND ON SCHOOL GROUNDS
The Board recognizes that structural and landscape pests can pose significant problems for people and school unit property, but that use of some pesticides may also pose health and safety risks to people, property and the environment. It is therefore the policy of M.S.A.D. #4 to incorporate Integrated Pest Management (IPM) principles and procedures for the control of structural and landscape pests.
For the purpose of this policy, “pests” are populations of living organisms (animals, plants or microorganisms) that interfere with use of school facilities and grounds. “Pesticide” is defined as any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying, repelling or mitigating any pests and any substance or mixture of substances intended for use as a plant regulator, defoliant or desiccant.
The objective of the school unit’s IPM program is to provide effective pest control while minimizing pesticide use. The goals of the IPM program include managing pests to reduce any potential hazards to human health; preventing loss or damage to school structures or property; preventing pests from spreading beyond the site of infestation to other school property; and enhancing the quality of life for students, staff and others. These goals will be addressed by the establishment of a Pest Management Plan.
The Superintendent and/or designee shall develop and implement a Pest Management Plan consistent with the following IPM principles and procedures:
A. Appointment of an IPM Coordinator
The Superintendent/designee will appoint an IPM Coordinator for the school unit. The IPM Coordinator will be the primary contact for pest control matters and will be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the IPM plan, including making pest control decisions.
The IPM Coordinator’s responsibilities may include:
1. Recording and monitoring data and pest sightings by school staff and students;
2. Meeting with pesticide applicators to share information about pest problems in school buildings and on school grounds;
3. Recording and ensuring that maintenance and sanitation recommendations are carried out where feasible;
4. Ensuring that any pesticide use is done according to the school unit’s Pest Management Plan;
5. Evaluating the school unit’s (or school’s) progress in implementing the IPM plan;
6. Coordinating notification of parents and staff of pesticide applications according to the school unit’s notification procedure and
7. Recording all pesticides used by either a professional applicator or school staff as a means to track compliance with the school unit’s IPM policy.
B. Identification of Specific Pest Thresholds
Routine inspection and accurate identification of pests are needed to recognize potential problems and determine when action should be taken. An “action threshold” should be determined by the IPM Coordinator, reflecting the pest control objective for each site. As pest management objectives will differ from site to site (e.g. maintaining healthy turf and specific playing surfaces on athletic fields, carpenter ant control in buildings, maintenance of ornamental plants), differences should be considered before setting an action threshold.
C. Pesticide Applicators
Any person who applies pesticides in school buildings or on school grounds must hold a Commercial Applicators License in the appropriate category. All pesticide use must be approved by the school unit’s IPM Coordinator. Applicators must follow state regulations and label precautions and must comply with the IPM policy and best management plan.
D. Selection, Use and Storage of Pesticides
Pesticides should be used only when needed. Non-chemical pest management methods will be implemented whenever possible to provide the desired control. The choice of using a pesticide will be based on a review of other available options (sanitation, exclusion, mechanical means, trapping, biological control) and a determination that these options have not worked or are not feasible. When it has been determined that a pesticide must be used to achieve pest management goals, the least hazardous effective pesticide should be selected.
Decisions concerning the particular pesticide to be used and the timing of pesticide application should take into consideration the use of the buildings or grounds to be treated.
Pesticide purchases should be limited to the amount expected to be used for a specific application or during the year. Pesticides will be stored and disposed of in accordance with label directions and state and federal regulations. Pesticides must be stored in an appropriate, secured location not accessible to students or unauthorized personnel.
E. Notification of Students, Staff and Parents of Use of Pesticides
A notice will be provided to staff, students and parents at the beginning of the school year briefly explaining the school unit’s pesticide use policy and indicating that pesticides may be used both indoors or outdoors, as needed. When appropriate, the school will notify staff, including the school nurse, students and parents/guardians at least 5 days in advance of planned pesticide treatments in the school or on school grounds, including playgrounds and playing fields.
F. Recordkeeping
In order to keep track of pesticide use and locate problem areas in buildings and on school grounds, records of pesticide use will be maintained at each school site for three years. Records are to be completed on the day the pesticide is applied. Pest surveillance records should be maintained to verify the need for pesticide treatments.

AUTHORIZED USE OF SCHOOL-OWNED FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT
School furniture and equipment with the exception of technology and science resources may be loaned to community groups for educational, civic, or charitable purposes when such groups are meeting in school buildings or on school grounds as permitted by policy KF—Public Use of School Facilities under the following conditions:
A. The group borrowing the equipment agrees to accept responsibility for repairing or replacing any equipment damaged or lost; and
B. Use of equipment will not interfere with the school program.
Use of school equipment by individuals or groups for any other purpose is prohibited.
The Board will permit school equipment to be loaned to staff when its use is related to their duties in M.S.A.D. #4 and to students when the equipment is necessary for instructional purposes or for co-curricular or extracurricular activities.
The Superintendent will be responsible for implementing procedures to ensure borrowers’ responsibility for and return of all such equipment.

STUDENT TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
The Board will provide transportation for all students living beyond a reasonable distance from their school or from a scheduled bus stop as the Board has determined.
In cases questioned, distance will be measured and established by the Superintendent.
Exceptions to the above distance shall be made for the following reasons only:
A. Health
Exceptions to established walking distances may be made for students with disabilities as required by their IEP. Exceptions may also be made to accommodate a student’s need for transportation with written documentation from the student’s physician.
B. Kindergarten Students
Kindergarten bus service will include pick-up and delivery to the home, providing a suitable bus turn is available.
C. Hazardous Walking Conditions
Hazardous walking conditions shall be defined as those which would place a child of a given age in a situation of greater than normal or average danger.
Authorized bus stops will be located so as to load and unload students with the most safety allowed by road conditions. The distance between stops may vary according to safety factors. If possible, students will be loaded and unloaded so that it is not necessary for them to cross a main highway to reach their homes.
Requests for bus stops, inconsistent with this policy must be made in writing and submitted to the Superintendent.

VIDEO CAMERAS ON TRANSPORTATION VEHICLES
The Board recognizes the school unit’s continuing responsibility to maintain order on school transportation vehicles to ensure the safety of staff and students. After carefully balancing the need for discipline and safety with students’ interests in privacy, the Board supports the use of video cameras on school transportation vehicles. In an effort to reduce student behavior violations, the cameras may be used to monitor student behavior during transport to and from school, extracurricular activities and field trips.
When the resulting video tapes are used as a basis for discipline, parents/guardians will be notified and given the opportunity to view the portion of the tape pertaining to the alleged violation. Students in violation of school discipline/conduct codes shall be dealt with in accordance with established Board policy, administrative procedures, and school practices.
Notice of use of video cameras for disciplinary purposes in school transportation vehicles will be provided all students, parents and staff in appropriate handbooks on an annual basis. Moreover, notice that video observation may take place will be posted in each transportation vehicle.
Any recording used in a disciplinary proceeding will be retained as part of a student’s disciplinary record, being disposed of as other such documentation except when special circumstances warrant longer retention. In regard to such video recordings, the school system will comply with all applicable provisions of state and federal law concerning student records.
The Superintendent will be responsible for the development of administrative procedures regarding review of video recordings made on school transportation vehicles. Such regulations will provide a process for review when significant violations of the student discipline/conduct code occur. Procedures will also address the retention of video tapes, the security of video cameras and recordings, specifying the school official(s) to be responsible for purchase, installation, maintenance, and replacement of equipment, scheduling and placement of cameras on transportation vehicles, requests for viewing and any necessary follow-up.

FREE AND REDUCED PRICE FOOD SERVICES
The school unit shall take part, as feasible, in the National School Lunch and other food programs that may become available to assure that all children for whom this School Board is responsible shall have the opportunity to receive proper nourishment.
Parents shall be advised that this program is available and eligibility criteria shall be made public.
In accordance with the guidelines for participation in these programs, and in accordance with the wishes of the Board, no child who a teacher believes is improperly nourished shall be denied a free lunch, or other food, simply because proper application has not been received from his/her parents or guardian.
It shall be the policy in our schools that when school lunch is desired, payment is expected on that day or in advance by/for pupils not eligible for free lunches. Should there be any difficulty in obtaining such payment, the matter is to be resolved by direct contact with the parent (or student, if emancipated). No student is to be denied food as a disciplinary measure.
The administration shall establish and publish, as appropriate, procedures which conform with state and federal requirements and the intent of this policy regarding participation in programs for free/reduced price meals and supplementary food.

COPYRIGHT COMPLIANCE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE
This administrative procedure contains a summary of the major provisions found in the federal copyright law and guidelines concerning reproduction of copyrighted works by educators. This summary is not intended to replace the law/guidelines, which should be referred to when questions regarding implementation arise. Copies of the law/guidelines may be obtained in the Superintendent’s Office and each building office.
A copyright provides the owner with the exclusive rights of reproduction, adaptation, publication, performance and display of the covered work. The copyright law contains certain “fair use” provisions that permit limited reproduction of materials based on four criteria:
A. The purpose and character of the use, including whether such is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
B. The nature of the copyrighted work;
C. The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
D. The effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
“FACE-TO-FACE INSTRUCTION”
Performance or display of any copyrighted work by teachers or students without permission from the copyright holder is permissible under the following circumstances:
A. The work must be performed or displayed in a face-to-face setting by a teacher or by students; and
B. The performance or display must be in the course of teaching activities, in a classroom or a similar educational setting.
Examples of performances or displays falling under this exception include reading a play in the classroom, singing a song in a classroom or showing a filmstrip or video (provided that it has been purchased or lawfully copied).
The following sections summarize the permissible or “fair use” of different types of copyrighted works. Because the law and technological applications continue to evolve, school unit employees are responsible for ensuring that the intended use of materials does not conflict with copyright law/guidelines and for informing students of such issues as appropriate.
