AISD has a program to provide a safe playground. Problems with playground equipment should be reported the maintenance department immediately. Equipment found to be out of compliance with safety standards will be removed.
PTA’s or other groups that wish to purchase and install playground equipment must assure the district that all requirements are met. Along with the funds to purchase the equipment, the organization must also provide funds to install the impact zone. Playground equipment approved vendors may be obtained from the Purchasing Department.
All new playground equipment must meet the latest published standards/guidelines for both American Society for Testing and Materials and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. Safety surfacing materials and equipment must be installed according to manufacturer’s directions and specifications.
