Important Notice: Updated Vaccination Records Required Dear Parents, The clinic is currently working to ensure that we have up-to-date vaccination records for all students. We have notified the parents of students who need to submit updated records. If you have not received this notification, your child is compliant and no further action is needed at this time. Please note that the deadline to submit these updated vaccination records is Thursday, November 14. If your child’s records are not submitted by that date, they will not be permitted to attend school. Thank you for your prompt attention to this important matter. Sincerely,

Caroline Eligio, BSN, RN

Nurse Brown has changed her last name to her married name, Eligio (phonetically: uh-lee-he-oh). Her new email is celigio1@kleinisd.net. She does not mind if students call her Mrs. E. or Nurse E. if needed.

Captain Molar presentation for Kinder will be held November 14 on campus. This program educates children on good oral hygiene and preventative care.

Students must be fever-free for 24 hours without the help of medications before returning to school. Using medications to lower a temperature does not make the student less contagious and can lead to illnesses being spread to other students.

Please contact Nurse Brown via email, cbrown15@kleinisd.net, if you have any questions for our GFE Clinic.

• Please place extra clothes in student's bags in case of accidents or spilled food for students in Grade K-2.
• The clinic needs a 2-weeks notice if you are bringing snacks for your child’s class. Please email Nurse Brown if you have any questions.
• Parents must drop all medications off in the clinic due to paperwork that is required.
