It's like the army around here spot inspections , one kid is missing hand sanitizer.

In the backpacks you must have mask and hand sanitizer Lysol wipes , and the eleven year old cannot produce hand sanitizer. And their mom does not mess around it’s not the tiny bottles of hand sanitizer, the big bottles these guys could bathe with it. I told the youngster you my boy are very lucky as I care for you no statement of charges for losing it I’ll hook you up. he smiled giggling just grab a new one mom has us stocked up. Gets better our sixteen year old is packing baby wipes , his reasons is the school toilet paper is cheap. For that thinking outside the box I think I’ll give him a Arcom cheese award.

military academe (reform school) and that would have cost 10 demerits.
You had to march off those demerits in the Bull Ring. If you exceeded a certain number, the school ask your parents for permission for corporal punishment. If not accepted you would be expelled with no return of prepaid tuition. The mean old Commandant gave one the choice of the whip or belt.
Being on the football, one almost never got demerits.

Most sons of questionable Right wing generals. They came not knowing one word of English and got demerits for speaking Spanish. They did learn the language pretty fast.

Pretty much every kid in east L.A. even in my day (63 yo) spoke English, the true Spanish only speakers were mostly the children of very recent immigrant farm workers.

Taxpayers then get to pay the plumber to root the pipes. Baby wipes do not belong in the toilet bowl.

it clogs up city sewer systems, not just the school building. It's a big enough problem in some cities that they ban stores from selling it.

Old fashion soap and water used with gentle motions over at least 20 seconds is better at breaking up viruses than any of that toxic stuff. Bar soap is better than liquid soap at that task.

All that junk is more for bacteria than for a very arisolised virus.

Reduce exposure to airborne particles, use eye covers, and soap and water are the three safest things they can do. Doctors use soap and water before surgery. A paramedic might use toxic stuff like your list on the roadside as a lesser evil.

Please be safe.
