TV/AV CARTS AND EQUIPMENT must be in good operating condition and roll with ease. TVs and other large equipment must be secured to the cart.
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS must be fully charged and mounted on the wall where access to them is unobstructed.

DECORATIVE PAPER must be limited to approximately 20 percent of the wall space in each room. Do not cover electrical switches, outlets, alarms, electrical panels, or other life safety equipment. Do not hang anything from the ceiling, light fixtures, or from wall to wall. Do not cover windows or doors with paper.
OVERHEAD STORAGE (on bookcases, cabinets, etc.) must either be secured or removed so objects can’t fall and cause injuries during earthquakes.

All containers must be labeled with the content’s chemical name and manufacturer’s name. Water containers must also be labeled.
ACCESS TO EXITS must be maintained at all times. Do not block front or back doors of classrooms or offices. All students and staff must have free access to both exit doors in case of an emergency. The pathways to exit doors must be as wide or wider than the door itself. Carts, students’ desks, cabinets, etc. should not impede evacuation in an emergency.
HOUSEKEEPING rules require that all areas of the classroom be maintained in a neat, orderly manner and be free from any condition that would create a fire, life safety, and/or emergency evacuation hazard.
