ALPINE, Calif. (KGTV) - The Alpine Union School District on Wednesday became one of the first school districts in the state to begin administering COVID-19 vaccines to staff.
For the five Pre-K to 8th-grade schools in the district, it's been hybrid in-person learning since September. Deb Burdette is the district's school psychologist. On Wednesday morning, her school day began with a field trip to a health clinic in the East County.
"I am thrilled. I have been waiting for this day," said Burdette.
