Parental Rights to Academic Accommodations
In 1986, Congress passed the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA). AHERA is a provision of the Toxic Substances Control Act. It requires that local education agencies (LEA) such as Legacy Preparatory Academy inspect for asbestos-containing building materials, prepare and maintain up-to-date AHERA Management Plans, and notify occupants of the plan yearly. All of this is to prevent the exposure of asbestos to the occupants of our school buildings.
Legacy Preparatory Academy’s AHERA Management Plan is available for review by clicking on the links below and has been submitted to the Utah Department of Environmental Quality/Division of Air Quality.
