Hello friends!

Hi!
I am Mrs. Dromgoole, the School Nurse at Elmwood St. School. I grew up in a small coastal fishing town -Fairhaven, MA- and then attended nursing school at Newton-Wellesley Hospital. I worked at NWH from 1970 through Dec. 2006 (with 33 of those years in the Emergency Room) when I retired from hospital nursing.

I have 1 daughter, Erin who teaches History @ Roxbury Latin, & two cats- Max, a very large black cat and Jasper, a fluffy grey tiger rascally cat. My other special interest is meteorology and helping others stay healthy!

“You cannot educate an unhealthy child and you cannot keep an uneducated child healthy” - Dr.Jocelyn Elders, past Surgeon General.
