DIRTY SCHOOL = SICK PEOPLE

Many diseases develop due to a lack of cleanliness. The common cold and the flu can spread like wildfire through a school. A couple of problems associated with dirty schools are increased illnesses, absenteeism, and reduced performance. Nearly 22 million school days are lost annually to the common cold and nearly 38 million school days are lost each year due to influenza. A clean school is crucial to ensure that children and teachers/staff have a safe and healthy working environment. When schools are properly disinfected, students and staff are better protected, healthy, be able to learn more productively and be less likely to be absent from school.

More than 3 in 5 parents have ongoing concerns that their children are exposed to germs at school.
50% of working parents surveyed that they pack their children's lunch because they think the cafeteria is "unclean".
Nearly half of all parents in a recent survey confessed that they feel pressure to send their children to school sick and often do so because they can't miss work.
