Spokane Regional Health District’s School Health & Safety program inspects all public, private and parochial K-12 schools within Spokane County on a three-year rotation. These inspections verify compliance with state health and safety regulations and guidelines (Chapter 246-366 WAC).
- Year 1 – The health district conducts the inspection with assistance from a school representative – the focus is on high-risk areas such as playgrounds, arts and crafts, shops and labs; the health district and the school work together to identify priorities and discuss plans for correction.
- Year 2 – the school conducts a re-inspection and provides the health district with a status report on the previous year’s inspection findings.
- Year 3 – the school conducts a comprehensive self-inspection.
