School Hygiene

School hygiene involves practices and policies to maintain a clean, safe, and healthy environment for students and staff. It includes proper sanitation of classrooms, washrooms, and common areas; promoting personal hygiene like handwashing and dental care; controlling pests and waste; ensuring safe drinking water; and managing illnesses to prevent outbreaks. Effective school hygiene supports students' physical health, enhances learning ability, and reduces absenteeism by minimizing the spread of infections. It requires coordinated efforts among school staff, students, and the community to foster habits that promote overall well-being and a healthy learning environment.
