Madison Schools to students: let it bleed, no bandages
Posted on June 1, 2010
The Madison School District is proposing that adhesive bandages be cut from the budget.
If a student needs an adhesive bandage for cuts/scrapes, they will need to bring one from home (hopefully at the beginning of the school year and kept on-hand by their teacher). Additionally, teachers will be asked to turn-in any remaining bandages to their school's health office at the end of the year.
***It should be noted that this story is riddled with references to "Band-Aid(s)" which is, in fact, a brand name for adhesive bandages owned by Johnson & Johnson.
