Andrew Avenue School Institutes Program to Keep Students Healthy

Naugatuck, CT - The administration at Andrew Avenue Elementary School has put into place strategies to keep Andrew Avenue healthy.

Andrew Avenue Principal Lisa Lachance received communication from Central Office about new procedures that must be put into place to reduce the transmission of germs in order to prevent illnesses.

"To assist in preventing the spread of virus/flu bacteria, each student will be asked to use a hand sanitizer when entering the building in the morning, prior to entering the cafe and when returning from recess."

Head Custodian Nick Albanese checked all rooms to ensure that the hand sanitizer machines were filled.

In addition, Andrew Avenue teachers were asked to show these developmentally appropriate videos to their classes on Monday to remind their students of the importance of hand washing and the proper way to do it.
