CLASSROOM GO BUCKETS, FOR SCHOOL LOCKDOWNS

Pop Quiz, hot shot: A school secretary sees a suspicious abandoned lunch bag. She calls the police. The SWAT team is called. The school is put into lockdown. Hundreds of kids are stuck in their classrooms, with no access to a bathroom. What do you do? WHAT…DO…YOU…DO??? You have the students pee in a bucket of kitty litter is what you do. Schools in Jefferson County, Colorado, now have Emergency Go Buckets – orange 5-gallon plastic buckets from Home Depot, with a pile of kitty litter in the bottom that students – and teachers – can use to relieve themselves in case of a lockdown. A sheet is also provided for privacy. Also, food and candy are included in the Emergency Go Buckets to help those who may need sugar during the wait.

* This is why schools call them Whizz Kids.
* Classrooms are pretty crowded. I hope it’s extra-absorbent multiple-cat kitty litter.
* Being a school janitor just got even more fun.
* We keep a Go Bucket under the board right here in the studio. I use it all the time.
* In fact, I’m using it… ahhh… right now…
