Help Fight Against Cold and Flu Season!

Help me give my students hand sanitizer and Lysol wipes to help fight cold and flu season!

My Project

In schools, the winter months typically see an uptick in classroom absences. That is because cold and flu season is upon us. While we do teach in schools that sharing is caring, some things are best not to be shared like germs!

To help keep my students in school, I would like to have hand sanitizer and Lysol wipes to keep the germs at bay!

By constantly cleaning the high traffic surfaces that students are constantly touching it can help stop the spread of cold and flu germs. Also, having students use hand sanitizer after every time the sneeze, cough, go to the bathroom, or blow their nose will help stop the spread of germs as well.

My goal is to create an environment where every student enjoys coming to school to learn. If I have a classroom where half the students are sick all the time, it does not help foster those relationships with my students.
