"Today I will choose Love. Tomorrow I will choose love. And the day after that, I will choose love. If I mistakenly choose distraction, perfection, or negativity over love, I will not wallow in regret. I will choose love until it becomes who I am." –Rachel Macy Stafford

Today,May 8th is SCHOOL NURSES DAY -
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!
I can not say enough about the AWESOME staff we have at Washington! Each person comes with talent and passion to teach and love our students! Thank you Washington Staff!
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!💙 --Ashley McLarty
