A fifth-grader collected over 200 signatures on a petition in attempts to end a school ban on Chapstick. The petition comes after the girl was denied Chapstick after recess on her dry lips, causing them to crack and bleed.

Draft Elementary School deems Chapstick an over-the-counter medicine that can only be used in school if prescribed by a physician and applied by the school nurse, reports CBS.

"I don't think it's right for kids to have bleeding lips during class," 11-year-old Grace Karaffa tells WHSV-TV. "They think it's a medicine and it's just a stick of Vaseline."

So far, Karaffa's petition to end the ban has 236 signatures, according to CBS reports.

The biggest concern about allowing elementary school students to use Chapstick is students sharing the medication, George Earhart, assistant superintendent for administration with the Augusta County school system, tells CBS.

After Karaffa spoke at a school board meeting, Earhart said he will consider her request, according to Opposing Viewpoints
