First Vandalia #203 COVID-19 Vaccinations
#ThisIsOurShot
#CrushCOVID
#VandalStrong
Vandalia #203 Nurses thank FCHD and FCH! #VandalStrong
Statement from Nurse Joy Lewis:
We are honored and excited to receive the COVID vaccine. We thank the FCHD and FCH for acknowledging our frontline work at the school. School nurses bridge the gap between healthcare and the education worlds. Besides caring for sick students and staff, we play a big role in educating our staff, students, and parents throughout this COVID-19 pandemic. Receiving the safe vaccination on Friday is another way we can hopefully educate and encourage our staff and community to receive this vaccination and promote a healthy and safe school environment for all.
Good morning! Our superhero school nurses received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on Friday (12-18). I am happy to report that all went well, and they have not experienced any side effects. Tell them thank you for being brave and leading the way for us!
