This year will be a challenging one for schools in order to control the possible outbreak and spread of the H1N1 virus. Because of the close contact and proximity of students in all grades from Pre-K to High School the challenge to properly clean and sanitize rooms, books, and shared spaces will pose a challenge to schools and their staff. It will be especially harder to sanitize preschool furniture in the classroom since most younger kids are more likely to sneeze and cough on commonly shared items and not wash their hands as often. With a little extra caution this year hopefully we will not reading about any major outbreaks and the cold and flu season is mild at best.
