I send my kids to school with sunhats. when they have recess before lunch, I just have them wear their hats in the morning. But my family has a history if skin cancer so I am super paranoid. I don;t assume sunscreen will be reapplied during the day.

But some long lasting sunscreen on in the morning and call it a day. You can buy body & face lotion with sun screen as well. Buy a small hand bag size, put it in there backpacks. Most schools allow kids to have their own loitons.

Yeah. I really don't see an issue. I put sunscreen on my daughter before school and it lasts until pickup. They aren't going in water or sweating it all off during the day.

My kid is active so he will sweat it off.

Your kid isn’t going to get that much outdoor time.

I thought DC council just passed a bill last Fall to change the rules so kids can bring it to school and apply it themselves without a note.
