Mark your calendar - SCHOOL NURSES DAY - May 8th
Everyone has been to see the school nurse at least once in their lives (and many of us more than once), be it for a genuine illness or just to get a sneaky note to get out of school early. It is easy to forget, though, just how important she is to the well beings of ourselves and our fellow school friends. What would we do when we injure ourselves or are feeling unwell at school without the school nurse? To let her know that we don’t take her efforts for granted, there is a special day once a year where we can celebrate her in style: School Nurse Day! This year it is May 8th.
This holiday is celebrated all around the world, and pupils and teachers everywhere are taking the opportunity to express their gratitude for the love and care the nurses give them on a daily basis. Here’s to those hard working nurses, and to the good health they help bring. Thank you to Washington Elementary's very special Nurse Sisson!
Calling all former Washington Wildcats! If you are a member of the FPS Senior Class of 2019 and went to Washington Elementary, please join us May 10 at 1:30pm for our Senior Walk. Please wear your cap and gown for a graduation walk and reception in your honor. Please RSVP to Melissa Werner at melner18@yahoo.com if you plan to attend. We hope to see you there!
