Nurse
Ashley Armstrong, RN
Hello Explorers!
I've been a pediatric nurse since 2009 and am excited to be here for my 5th year at Tobias Elementary! Please check out this page and please email or call me if you need anything.
Illness and Injuries Please email me or fill out my Student/Staff Anonymous Tobias Illness/injury Questionnaire if your child is out for fever, vomiting, or diarrhea; has a positive Flu, Covid, or other contagious illness; has an injury that will require they modify their activities (PE, recess, or classwork); or if they required surgery. For activity modifications longer than 3 days we do need a doctor's note.
Medications must be kept in the nurse office. Any medications at school need parent and physician authorization, must be unexpired, and must come with their original prescription label. We must have all documentation from parent and physician before medication is able to be left or administered by the nurse. Please do not send medications in student's pockets or belongings for them to take later.
New Students Parents please reach out to me if you child has asthma, allergies that are severe, bleeding disorders, seizures, needs medication during school hours, or any other condition that will impact their school day. This is so we can help them have the best experience and care while at school.
Health screenings are required by Texas state law. Each year we have school wide vision and hearing screens for PreK, Kinder, 1st, 3rd, 5th. We also screen for Acanthosis Nigricans in 1st, 3rd, and 5th grade. Click the following for more info >> Texas State Health and Human Services State Laws on Screenings in Public Schools
If you need help please reach out to myself and our counselor. We have many resources to help in many different ways!
