How to Make Your Child's School
a Healthier Place.

Start a program that supports proper hand hygiene in the classroom. Here’s how.

1

Meet with your child’s teacher. If a hand hygiene program doesn’t exist, offer to start one.

2

Check the school’s supply list. Does it include a product such as PURELL® Instant Hand Sanitizer? If not, ask the principal to add one.

3

Talk with other parents. Work together to create interest in the program.

4

Involve school personnel. Talk to science, health, phys ed and home ec teachers. Also consult the food service staff, school nurse, teacher’s aides and groups like the PTA.

5

Volunteer in the classroom. It’s the best way to get the program off to a great start.
