[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School supplies should be school supplies. No baby wipes, no Clorox wipes, no tissues, no paper towels. Use what the school provides and what taxpayers have already PAID FOR! she should have cleaning spray they have toilet tissue they have paper towels. [b]It’s very obnoxious to request parents to spend more money because you prefer something better than what’s already been purchased. This has to stop. [/b][/quote]

It’s very obnoxious to request teachers spend their own time/money/effort because FCPS is unable to supply basic cleaning and hygiene supplies. Rather than directing your anger towards the teacher who is asking for needed items to do their job, direct it towards figuring out why so many teachers across the county feel the need to request these items. When this issue is so widespread and occurs at both low and high income schools all across the county, stop & think for a minute why that might be! [/quote]

You don’t need Clorox wipes to do your job. Please be serious.

But to your point, yes, parents should be contacting the school board to ask why there is enough money for endless extras but not enough money in the budget— though it’s in the budget— for janitorial supplies. Then they will either be told the supplies are in fact purchased for the school, or that the school is in violation of health codes.[/quote]

I think it was already explained earlier in this thread but children make messes all day and so yes, cleaning up after them is part of the job. Teachers need to be able to quickly do this so they can transition to their next activity, teaching!
