Your donations helped to fund some of the end of the year supplies and necessities for our Cadwalader Cubs. As a new school nurse, it has been a learning experience to gauge how supplies will last throughout the school year. I have some supplies and materials in excess, but others are almost out of stock completely. The supplies and materials that this project supplied our health office with will ensure that our school community has some of the basic necessities needed to complete our 2024-2025 school year. These supplies will, likely, help us start off our 2025-2026 school year as well.\r\n\r\nBeing an elementary school nurse, I see my fair share of scratches and scrapes each and every day. The wound cleansers, Neosporin, and Band-aids will surely help with this never ending need. Also, having gloves and masks will help to keep myself and the students within the school community safe, especially during this horrendous allergy season. \r\n\r\nI truly appreciate your selfless act of donating funds to this project.
