Reminder About Bathroom Etiquette


It is imperative that you talk with your students about PROPER BATHROOM BEHAVIORS.


Our school bathrooms are shared spaces, and it is important that everyone treats them with care and respect. Toilets are only for flushing toilet paper. Paper towels, excessive amounts of toilet paper, trash, and other objects should never be placed in the toilets, as they caused serious plumbing problems and prevent toilets from flushing properly.


Parents and guardians must address bathroom behaviors with their students; appropriately flushing after each use, what does and does not get flushed in a toilet, washing your hands, and leaving the space clean for the next person.


Additionally, we ask that students know to speak with an adult when they do notice inappropriate behaviors, issues in the bathrooms, and if it needs the attention of maintenance immediately.
