In so many ways, this is an amazing time of the year. Somedays it seems we are seeing COVID more and more from the rearview mirror; other days COVID remains all around us. Please continue daily health screenings, physical distancing in the hallways and classrooms, and keeping the mask on while in school.
Also-if your child is not feeling well, please keep them home.
Happy School Nurses Day!
She helps children/staff out with medical needs, has facilitated our daily health screening process and calls home to every family where we are expecting to see their children in school but we do not.
Thank you for everything Nurse Gilman!!
