Dear Parents & Guardians,
From
time to time situations occur in school in which a child is in need of a change
of clothes. Some children may have an extra set of clothes in school in the
event that an incident occurs. However, that is not the case for most of the
children here at school. This is a typical
scenario: a child may fall into a puddle at recess, spill milk at lunch all
over his/her clothing, or a child has a urinary accident and is need of a
change of clothes. It is sometimes
difficult for parents to come to school, especially if both parents are working.
Since it’s important to keep the child in school, it is wonderful to be able to
provide dry clothing that a child can change into.
In the
past there has been an assortment of clothing and new underpants in the nurse’s
office that children could change into.
Parents would wash them and return them to the nurse’s office. Currently, the backup clothing supply has
diminished considerably. The Shawsheen nurse’s
office is in need of donations of gently used clothing for boys and girls. We
could use size 6 to size 12 leggings and pants for girls including plus size
girls’ pants and sweatpants. For boys, I am in need of sweatpants and pants size
6 to size 10 including husky sizes. Any new underwear donations are greatly
appreciated.
Thank you for any assistance
you are able to offer.
Sincerely,
School Nurse
