Region 15, in compliance with the requirements of Public Act 09-81 regarding green cleaning products in schools, has developed the following information and program regarding the use of cleaning products used in our facilities.

The Act requires the following information be made part of the written program:

  • The name and description of the cleaning product
  • The location and how the cleaning product will be used
  • The schedule of when the product will be used
  • A method to prevent any staff, faculty, parent or guardian from bring into the facility a product intended to clean, deodorize, sanitize or disinfect. No parent, guardian, teacher or staff member may bring into the school facility any consumer product which is intended to clean, deodorize, sanitize or disinfect.
  • A designated person for further contact and overall responsibility of managing the program. That person is Keith McLiverty. He can be reached at (203) 758-1743.
