A driver hired by the partnership uses a van owned by the San Mateo County Office of Education to transport kits from school to school. Therefore teachers using the kit are responsible for seeing that the kit is useable by the next school. Necessary reagents and new supplies are sent directly to the school and where appropriate, receiving teachers restock the kit. This set of inventory sheets accompanies the Gene Connection Kit. Instructions are designed for Gene Connection teachers and should be used only as a starting place if you are setting up a similar program.
Numbered boxes go directly from school to school.
This program works because every teacher and student involved in the program takes individual responsibility for care of equipment and maintenance of the kit. Note any discrepancies on this form. If you need alcohol lamps or special equipment, call Marti.
