Purell is a beautiful thing... At least you'll have 3rd graders right? They aren't too bad. It's the kindergartners that you need to watch out for. If i had a dollar for every time I have to remind one of them not to pick their noses or to get their hands out of their pants or not to eat food off the floor.
Then of course there's those moments where they hold your hand and then say Oops! I forgot to wash my hands when i came out of the bathroom!
Yep! Yay Purell!! You're right; third graders are better, although I still had one who picked his nose and ate his boogers constantly... or wiped them on the table... or the floor... or my coop. teacher's shoes... On picture day, it was his turn to go up and get his picture taken, and I watched the kid wipe his snotty nose with his hand and then wipe his hand off all over his shirt, then march over for his picture before anyone could stop him. I had to turn around so the kids wouldn't see the look on my face LMAO.
