New Study from Bounty Paper Towels and Puffs Facial Tissues Finds 90% of Teachers Wouldn’t Give Their Students an “A” for Cleanliness

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A recent survey of the nation’s teachers by Bounty Paper Towels and Puffs Facial Tissues revealed that one of the secrets to creating an ideal classroom rests in cleaning up all messes, from spills to runny noses. In partnership with Wakefield Research, the paper towel and tissue brands uncovered that 85 percent of surveyed teachers believe it takes less than an hour for their students to make a mess of their classroom – and keeping up with the mess is directly affecting their curriculum.
