The Open House is a way to “recognize the school board and administration for their support and initiative which enables us to provide the services” says Alisa Estrada, Clinic Administrator. Also a great big Thank You goes out to Dr. Edwin Nebblett who has been providing medical care to the community for 10 years. Recognition of his commitment to our people is much appreciated and celebrated.
The Quemado Clinic is directly across the school for a square building in the gravel parking area. On Tuesdays, the clinic provides school board medical services to all student pre-school thru 12, students siblings, teachers and staff. Dr. Joyce Stigge will be there on alternate days to give the students and staff the option of having a female provider. On Wednesday, medical services are provided to anybody in the community.
