   Are we counting working days or school days? Our lovely district re-did the calendar for the year and pushed us back to June 21st. 45 working days left ?

   Opening Texas

   BooBooCrew replied to BunnyBunnyBSNRN's topic in School

   I am in texas, but thought the same thing about Florida. I am so disappointed in our governor, especially doing this during Spring break when we see a lot of travelers. Thankfully I think our school district will continue to require masks, but if stu...

   Staying or Going?

   BooBooCrew posted a topic in School

   Judging from the post a few posts down titled "Tired of being the bad guy" I can tell it's been a mess of a year for everyone, not just me and not just Texas. I didn't think I would make it through this year but have talked to my admin team and put a...

   Surprise, Surprise... COVID Contacts after Thanksgiving... great!

   BooBooCrew replied to Amethya's topic in School

   Maybe it's just us in Texas where there's little no concern for the virus and everyone tries to keep it a secret if they feel bad - we have no new cases and only a handful of students with symptoms. That being the case honestly scares me more because...

   Yes ma'am!! I love it. I couldn't agree more. If you're not concerned for our health and well-being then I am not concerned about annoying you. Sorry pal.

   Stress- and decompress

   BooBooCrew replied to nursekoll's topic in School

   Yes, absolutely feeling this same way. We have set-up weekly area nurses Microsoft Teams calls (I am in the 14th largest district, so we break up into areas) and that has been so helpful to talk things through, hear what the other nurses are seeing a...

   allergie and covid

   BooBooCrew replied to ruralseok's topic in School

   Same as above. This is an exceptional year and while on a typical day I am of the "butts in seats; you're fine" mentality, this year its option A send home. I am not only trying to keep me safe, but also trying to keep every other staff member safe a...

   Vision/Hearing with virtual learners

   BooBooCrew replied to Supernrse01's topic in School

   We haven't yet heard if we are doing screenings and if so how we are doing them. I had imagined just doing those that actually NEED them for 504/ARD and if a teacher notices something off, but otherwise foregoing the mass screenings. Fingers crossed!...

    Left in the Dark

    BooBooCrew posted a topic in School

    With all that is going on regarding the reopening of schools amidst a global pandemic, I have spent hours reading guidelines and research in preparation to keep me, our students, and our staff as safe and up-to-date as I can. However, much to my disa...

    Exclusion Guidelines- AHHH

    BooBooCrew replied to WyVy's topic in School

    @ruby_jane @k1p1ssk Interesting! I am in Texas and wonder if we have the same mandate. As you might infer from my questions, we haven't been told anything about anything from our Central Health Services or district leadership. Are you both in M...

    CNM Midwifery Preceptor

    BooBooCrew replied to BooBooCrew's topic in CNM

    @FNPLiz5 I actually ended up transferring to UT-Arlington to pursue Nurse Education rather than Midwifery. The BIGGEST challenge with the program has nothing to do with coursework, but rather with securing a preceptor. In your interview, I would ment...

    Exclusion Guidelines- AHHH

    BooBooCrew replied to WyVy's topic in School

    So my question is, what happens to you the nurse? If the whole class has to quarantine after being exposed, would you not have to too if you spent more than 15 min caring for the student?
