From the APS School Nurses

On behalf of the APS Elementary School Nurses, we are excited to share our FIRST monthly newsletter with you. Each month we will share health information, APS health office happenings, useful

links, and other important information that you need to know. It has been a spectacular Fall with lots of sunshine and warm days. The children have been enjoying lots of time outdoors. The students will get outside to play, as long as it is not too wet or too cold. Please remember as the days start to get colder, children should be dressed to be comfortable to be outside for 20 minutes. Jackets, hats, and gloves/mittens are recommended. If your family is in need of winter clothing, please reach out to their school nurse. We have lots of resources!

In good health,

The APS Elementary Nurse Team
