  Case: Student Smells Bad
There is a student in my internship who always shows up dirty and smelling bad. His smell can be a distraction to other students in the class. My CT has heard from other school staff that the student's family is very low-income, and this has been a repeated issue in the past. What can or should we do to address the issue?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The best thing to do is not draw extra attention to it. I would have extra items for the student to be able to use in case they do not have them at home. I also would bring this issue up privately with the guidance counselor in case there is something deeper going on or that the school can help out with.
