 50K masks that were donated to Edmonson County Schools from A Plus Family Healthcare. Darren Doyle, story: Like them or not, kids are going to be wearing masks in Edmonson County Schools for the near future, and one local health clinic has made a generous donation to help. A Plus Family Healthcare in Brownsville recently donated 50,000 disposable masks to be distributed throughout local schools as needed. "We were able to acquire these through the Health Resources Services Administration and decided the best use for them was to get them to our local schools," said A Plus CEO Patrick Merritt. "It's just one of the many ways we feel like our services can be best utilized locally." The clinic also supplies medical assistants in each school that provides healthcare in a program called "A Plus Kid Care." Superintendent of Schools Brian Alexander said the school system appreciates the opportunity to partner with A Plus. "In a time of continued concern during the COVID virus pandemic, A Plus has come to the aid of our students with mask needs," he said. "We value the working partnership we have with A Plus Family Healthcare."

Darren Doyle, story: Some of the hardest working folks in the Edmonson County School District are too often overlooked, and those are the custodians that behind the scenes, keeping local schools clean and safe. The custodial staff in EC schools have already reported back to work, and according to Callie Beliles, new Director of Facilities and Safety for Edmonson County Schools, they are already working hard to get local schools ready for a “better normal”. "Last week, Lannie Deweese and I kicked off the start of their year with their required annual safety training, and these folks are extremely excited to start the new school year out," she said. "They are truly the frontline in keeping our kids healthy, and we appreciate them so much. This group of people truly love our kids, and work so hard to ensure we have the cleanest environment possible to help our students and staff achieve excellence." Superintendent of Edmonson County Schools Brian Alexander said local facilities would be a huge disadvantage without the successful team our local schools have. “We’re extremely thankful for the efforts our custodians put forth every day to keep our students and staff safe," he said. "Throughout the pandemic, our custodians have continually worked to keep our schools clean. As a school district, we are constantly striving to make sure our custodial staff at each school is well-trained and well-equipped to do their jobs.” |
