Students need to feel confident when they join their peers for school each day! In person or virtual, all students need to have access to the basic materials that enable them to not wonder if their body is betraying them by making their classmates wonder why they choose to smell bad. No person, regardless of age, wants to offend those around them with bad body odors. Now, imagine being an elementary student or preteen and having to wonder if their classmates will take notice of their body odors on that particular day. Being a young person in today's world is hard enough. Basic hygiene should not be a hinderance to a student finding success in the classroom.
