School restrooms fail standards

Schools usually have clean restrooms but at River Ridge High School that is not the case.

River Ridge claims that most of the damage in the bathrooms have been caused by student vandalism but some of the dirty parts of the bathroom are just from natural use.

Recently there has been a spike in how dirty the bathrooms are and a lack of care from the custodial staff or the school board. Some of the bathrooms are missing crucial parts of bathroom cleanliness such as dry toilet cover seats or even soap dispensers. Soap dispensers are a very important part of keeping the school clean and they also prevent sickness.

When students were asked earlier in the week many responded saying that they were disappointed with the main restrooms in the school and some are even resorting to going to the nurses restroom because it is the only one that they find sanitary enough to use. RRHS needs and improvement desperately and the only one that can do it is the school.
