I've checked a couple of sites to verify this is not an urban legend,
couldn't find anything on the subject. If true, it's a great 'Visual'
lesson
Lipstick at School
According to a news report, a certain private school in
Washington recently was faced with a unique problem.
A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use
lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom.
That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they
would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of
lip prints.
Every night the maintenance man would remove
them and the next day, the girls would put them back.
Finally the principal decided that something had to be
done.
She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them
there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip
prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to
clean
the mirrors every night.
To demonstrate just how difficult it had been to clean
the mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how
much
effort was required.
He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the
toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it.
Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.
There are teachers, and then there are educators...
