Welcome to Village Elementary!

Hello, welcome to the 23-24 school year!  I am Nurse Acuña and I have been honored to be Village's nurse going into my 5th year! I have 21 years of nursing experience and have worked in various areas of nursing such as public health, oncology, and worked as a regional nurse consultant to share a few areas along my career. I have two boys who attend GISD. I am invested in GISD as a parent, community member and now as a proud GISD employee. I take my role in caring for your student(s) with great responsibility to do my absolute best each day to keep them safe and healthy. I am a strong advocate for children/students. I enjoy caring for them and consider this the best nursing job there is! Please feel free to reach out to me for any questions or concerns, and thank you for allowing me to care for your child(ren).

Additional Information

  • Clinic Information

    • Students must be fever/vomit/diarrhea free for 24 hours, without medication, prior to coming back to school.
    • Covid testing is not required for ill students returning to school BUT please contact me if your student tests positive for Covid to discuss quarantine guidelines.
    • Parents/guardians must drop off and pick up medication at the nurse's office. Students are not allowed to transport medication.
    • New permission forms/asthma action plans/allergy action plans must be completed each school year. 
    • Activity restrictions will pertain to both PE and recess. 

GISD follows the Texas Department of Health Guidelines for illness-related exclusions from school. A student will be sent home if they have a fever of 100.0 Fahrenheit or above or any other contagious symptoms (vomiting, diarrhea, rash, etc.) and will need to remain home until symptom free for twenty-four (24) hours, without the use of medication. 

If the doctor prescribes your child antibiotics, he/she must be on the antibiotic for 24 hours before returning to school.

These guidelines are followed to prevent the spread of illness to other students.
