SEATTLE , WA, UNITED STATES, November 3, 2022 / / -- – Science Safety, Inc., a leader in science, STEAM, CTE, and education, is offering a free methanol safety module to all Virginia schools, in response to the accident in Dinwiddie High School in Dinwiddie County, Virginia where several students and a teacher were injured.

School science laboratory accidents and injuries involving methanol have occurred and resulting in many educational institutions banning the use of certain science experiments and demonstrations that involve methanol; including the 'Colorful Rainbow' experiment.
“The potential for fires and injuries resulting from the use of methanol in K12 schools can be significantly reduced, or even preventable, with appropriate and proactive safety training, and awareness,” said Dr. Brian Collins, a Director of Science Safety, Inc.
