Q: Why do germs spread so quickly in schools?
A: High-touch surfaces and shared spaces all day long.
Classrooms are high-traffic environments. Students share desks, supplies, devices, and common areas throughout the day. That constant contact makes it easy for germs to spread quickly, even when a space looks clean. High-touch surfaces like desks, door handles, and shared equipment can carry more than people realize if they’re not cleaned consistently. Are your high-touch areas getting the attention they need?
