Health Services and School Nurses

Nurse Lois Thompson attends to a student

Certified school nurses provide k-12 health services in our district with the support of a registered nurse or a licensed practical nurse health room assistant. The certified school nurses are responsible for emergency treatment of accidental injuries and assistance to students who become ill at school. They also conduct a comprehensive program of health examinations and screenings in addition to maintaining up-to-date health and immunization records for each child.
