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...
