Charge for Feminine Hygiene?

Beginning in 2018, NYC schools are required to offer free menstrual products (e.g., sanitary napkins and/or tampons) in schools.

So why is Stuyvesant High School still charging?

 

Fifty Cents?!

I thought they were free now.

Storage room or bath room?

It reminds me of my shower stall/ storage space at home

Healthy Growth in School

I discovered a colony of mold (?) growing on the faucet in the men’s room. This could be a marvelous science project for budding mycologists. You can see the reflection of my phone in the top photo.

Here is a close-up of the spores. So juicy.

Bathrooms for Special Ed

In 2016, at 176X at Truman high school, I saw these bathroom signs: “Boys Bathroom Special Ed” and “Girls Bathroom Special Ed.” Hmm, segregation much? I alerted a staff member who alerted the custodian.

The signs have since been removed. The real questions is, how come no one else who saw these signs –including the students using the bathrooms — thought it was wrong (and possibly illegal)? How could these signs be up for so long and no one said a thing?
