Pad Disposal Bags and Covers

Help me give my students pads, disposal bags, and dispensers, as well as flushable hygiene wipes.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Mishima-Donahue's classroom raised $456

My Project

The 6th-grade classes are the farthest from the office where the health room is located. Many of our girls don't want to leave their class and walk two buildings away if they need an emergency pad. When they're in my classroom, they don't need to go far since I have a hygiene cart with all the things they need, from hair ties to pads and wipes. They were so excited when I dropped off some pads to their classrooms due to having extras. I asked them if they had any requests for me, and they all agreed they wanted disposal bags for the restroom along with wipes to feel cleaner.

My 6th graders requested pad disposal bags.

They also requested sweets, and as a woman, I understand the junk food cravings during that time of the month. These, of course, will be used as incentives to encourage engagement during lessons as well as for students who exhibit positive behaviors.
