Re: how do you order your Chemstore Groups ?

We also had them in class's then A-Z. So as Merilyn said we also did NOT segreate chlorides from sulfates. Our chem store only had unopened chemicals, the open ones where stored in the same way but in the prep room. Gee hope that makes sense.

Re: School culture concerning food.

The CSIS tells us no food or drink in a Science class AT ALL. Chemicals stay in the air for years and years so we are told. Hence we are told to wear lab coats & PPE for the reason. SO no NO. Student can go to the door and open it, for a drink from there water bottles.
