Music that Describes Kristy
Kristy Pillsbury was nominated by her principal, Jessica Villeneuve.
"Kristy is one of our school nurses; we share her with the Junior High," said Villeneuve. "She has been on the COVID-19 Committee since the spring of 2020 and has stayed abreast of all things COVID from the Health Department, researchers, and the Department of Education. She advises the Superintendent and is our go-to person for all algorithms and scenarios. Kristy has put in countless hours after school and never winces when approached with a silly question or a difficult scenario. She has saved many of us, mentally, legally, and technically over the past year and a half. COVID aside, she is a highly competent school nurse and wonderful colleague. She has made my first year as a principal immeasurably better."
