Dear Parents/Guardians:
As you continue your learning adventures at home, we wanted to make you aware that the school nurses are still available to answer health related questions. Although the typical
health room services have currently changed, we value your input and would like to connect with you while schools are closed. A nurse is available for any questions or concerns you may have and will try to respond or locate a resource within a 24-hour time period. Please be safe!
