My Project

I am the school nurse of a very small school. We have kids in kindergarten through 8th grade and they are from many different backgrounds. Our middle school students in particular, seem to be struggling in the hygiene department. I have been tasked to provide education on basic hygiene skills.

I plan to provide each of our middle school students these products in the hopes that they will use them to practice their newly learned skills.

In addition, any extra supplies I will have available to give out to any other students in need.
