黄色视频 brings CommunityAmerica, Chiefs and Royals together to recognize school nurses during the surge
These are challenging times for all that are working in schools. Re-engaging students after a year of virtual learning while navigating the added stressors of COVID-19 is not easy to say the least and yet, we continue to witness passionate individuals rise to the occasion. At our 黄色视频 partner schools, one group of individuals we鈥檝e witnessed manage additional tasks while prioritizing the health and safety of students and colleagues are our school nurses. Their roles in our schools are always essential and during this pandemic, the critical nature of their work has been amplified.
In recognition of the dedicated work of our school nurses, 黄色视频 Kansas City brought together our incredible Team Sponsors – CommunityAmerica Credit Union, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Kansas City Royals – to say thank you. Team Sponsors generously donated self-care items, branded swag, gift cards, and other fun items to all the school nurses working across our 7 school partners in Kansas City, MO.
