Weird reasons to come to school nurse?

Published

Had a girl that got sent to met today because she had gum on her shoe....:bored::blink:

What have you guys gotten so far?

This happened to me yesterday....teacher sent a note with student that says, "He's sneezing". I took temp, checked him out, had him blow his nose, sent student back. I never heard him sneeze. He looked great, and I didn't call the parent. I ended up having to call mother at end of day due to an immunization issue and found out that the teacher had called her about the little boys sneezing.

I wonder if I have that teacher's twin??? I had the same issue, did the same thing as you and the TEACHER CALLED HOME TO GET STUDENT PICKED UP!!!!!

I once had one that had a roach infestation in her home. The teacher had the building admin require me to inspect her backpack outside daily before school to make sure she wasn't bringing any into the building. Like there aren't any in a building that was built in the 1920s. That lasted 1 day.

Um...uh... I'm trying to think about how that conversation would go...

"Johnny, keep your hands off your junk in public."

Sorry, I'm having a bit of a day and feeling a little twisty. This is me and my horrible sense of humor.

I can not stop laughing, literally tears are pouring out of my eyes. Needed this today!!!

4th grade girl: I was taking hay to my rabbits this morning and I wasn't wearing a shirt, now I'm itchy

Caladryl and a talk about topless bunny feeding seemed to fix the problem:nurse::roflmao:

"My feet hurt" I look down. She is wearing tap shoes, no socks its 32 degrees outside and its well after 12:00. UMMMM nobody noticed she was tromping around all day in tap shoes in the winter?!?!?! The best part of that was when she arrived in my office she went from carpet to tile and slide across my floor like an elephant on skates and nearly landed on my lap. To this day, I laugh until I cry thinking of that whole event.

"My head hurts because my braids are too tight"

I had that about 4 years ago. The kid and I looked at each other after she said it and cracked up. She was 15 at the time.
