One of the things that has been on my to-do list lately is writing a letter to our preschool families.  I helped to implement a reduced-toxin cleaning program and it is finally in place!  One more check in the box for this month :)

Here is my letter:


Dear Cooperative Preschool Families,


In an effort to do our part for the environment, the preschool board has chosen to implement a reduced-toxin cleaning program.  It is also our goal to make the school environment healthier for students, staff and parents. 
Indoor air pollution is linked to asthma and is the biggest cause of school absenteeism from chronic illness.  In addition, air pollution often contains cancer-causing particles.
In an attempt to improve the school’s indoor air quality, we have chosen to reduce the amount of chemicals our children encounter on a daily basis.  We also sought a product that would have less impact on our waterways and environment.  After extensive research into cleaning alternatives we have chosen Bio Green Clean as substitute for bleach and Lysol.  Bio Green Clean is a non-toxic, plant-based formula that is hypoallergenic, fragrance free and safe for skin and lungs.  Additionally, this solution was not tested on animals and is biodegradable.
Various solutions of Bio Green Clean will be used throughout the preschool for a myriad of jobs.  Suggested uses, recipes for solutions and additional information about the product will be available in a binder at the school.
If you are interested in pursuing a reduced-toxin environment in your home or are curious about the product we have chosen, information about Bio Green Clean can be found here:  http://biogreenclean.com


We are looking forward to a healthier school year!




Happy reduced-toxin cleaning to everyone!
