Hi guys! I'm not a school nurse, but I do enjoy perusing your very active forums. I just read a hilarious article with examples of crazy notes that teachers have sent home to parents, and I couldn't help but think of you guys: 14 Cringeworthy Notes Teachers Sent Home To Poor, Poor ParentsI do kind of wonder if any of these were sent home by school nurses, not teachers. Anyway, I thought you might enjoy, and I'm curious to hear if you have stories of your own crazy notes to share.
