DECEMBER 2022 Statement of the Problem
Rest room is a room or small building containing one or more toilets (and
possibly also urinals) which is available for use by the general public, or by
customers or employees of certain businesses. Public toilets are commonly
separated into male and female facilities. Sanitation in restrooms of public
schools is something that many students can smell first before they can even be
seen. Poor maintenance has become so common—from the perpetually wet
floors, dim lighting, broken cubicle doors, minimal ventilation and malfunctioning
toilets—that it ceases to bother them.
The stench pierces through the nose so strongly that it physically stops you
in your tracks. Those who complain can’t clearly be heard anymore because poor
sanitary conditions are becoming less of a concern. The recurring challenges that
public high schools face include limited manpower who can cover sanitation, and
the lack of infrastructure to accommodate the number of students who will be
using rest rooms.
To circumvent this limitation, hygiene and health efforts are instead directed
to prevention. Schools also cope by reverting to influencing student behavior.
The problems that Ill-kept and unsanitary restrooms create are many. First, they
tell teachers and students they are not important enough to have clean, well-
maintained restrooms, which can be very demoralizing. The image of an entire
school also can be affected by the condition of its restrooms: clean well-
maintained restrooms indicate a healthy learning environment; dirty restrooms
often suggest danger, lack of discipline and adult supervision, and an otherwise
unhealthy learning environment. Most dangerous of all is the fact that unkempt
school restrooms also present serious health and safety issues. Pathogenic
microorganisms, blood, and other bodily fluids are often found on poorly
maintained restroom fixtures, doors, and counters. These germs can easily be
spread because of inadequate hand washing. This is not only a health hazard for
students and teachers, but for those cleaning the facilities as well. In addition,
slip, trip, and fall accidents tend to be more common in poorly maintained
restrooms, which can create financial liabilities for schools.
One more truth adding to the problem of unhealthy, unsanitary restrooms is
it is cyclical. Dirty school restrooms attract more dirt. Decent, safe, and secure
facilities are essential to successful educational programs. Creating a safe school
environment is necessary in order for teachers to teach effectively and for
students to be receptive to learning. While typical thinking regarding “safe school”
environments often involves a school that is free of weapons, illegal drugs,
student intimidation, and theft, other factors regarding the physical condition and
appearance of school facilities, such as noise levels and cleanliness are
