Students have difficulty learning when they are concerned about basic needs. When they come to school and other students make comments about how their clothes are dirty or smelly the students are not focused on what the teacher is trying to teach them. At this age students often have toileting accidents, but they may not have running water at home. A cleaning station allows the teacher to help clean the child’s clothes before they go home so that the child does not worry about how they will get clean. This makes for a better learning environment.
