My Project

Fridge-help to ensure quality of medications for our students. Our students store daily medications and other supplies in the nurse's fridge to ensure quality and use.

Ice Maker-ensure we have ice for injuries and first aid needs during the school day.

The ice maker along with reusable ice packs helps to ensure students have access to what they need for first aid. This could be for use in the nurses office or to be sent with the student to the class or home.

Other supplies help our students ensure we have the supplies needed for first aid, nose bleeds, colds, etc. Along with creating pieces to display to encourage health and wellness in our students.
