Happy School Nurse Day to our own frontline workers! CDE classes made this bandage bulletin board to show their appreciation for our school nurses, who have been working extra hard this year conducting contact tracing and administering COVID tests for student-athletes. To all the school nurses out there (but especially ours), we appreciate you!
