Essential Locker Accessories
The start of the new school year is arriving shortly and I am sure the list of back to school supplies is increasing by the day. Most teachers, during the first week of school, provide specific lists of supplies needed for each class. In addition to class supplies, gym supplies, and locker accessories are also needed. Here are three basics supplies that will be needed for a school locker.
Disinfectant Wipes
First and most important thing to be done, before anything is put inside of the locker, is to clean and disinfect it. Most schools janitorial staff that clean the lockers, at some point during the summer break, may just do a topical cleaning and sticker residue, food crumbs or simply dust may very well, be left behind. Use disinfectant wipes to clean the insides of the locker. Additionally, the wipes can also be used to wipe the outside of the locker door and handle. The cleanup can be done quickly however, if the condition of the locker appears as if the cleanup cannot be completed with a couple of wipes, the school office should be notified.
Air Fresheners
After the locker is disinfected and it is now nice and clean, a nice fragrance will put the icing on the cake. There are several types of air fresheners available but the easiest way to give a nice aroma to the locker would be to use the type that can be affixed to the door or wall of the locker. Check local supermarkets or variety stores in the air fresheners section where a wide array of scents can be found.
Combination Locks
Sad but true, theft in schools does occur. Securing belongings and valuable is a must. Some school lockers have locks built into them but other do not. In the case there is not a built in lock on the locker, a combination lock must be purchased. Most combination locks have a code consisting of three or four digit series of numbers and there are even some available that allow a personal code to be set. This code should be written down in two or three different places in case it is forgotten and never given out to friends.
There are lots of stuff available for school lockers, but these are items that are essential and should be at the top of all back to school lists.
