School Nurses are here to advance the overall heath and well being of our students
and staff to support learning and academic success.
"School nursing is a specialized practice of professional nursing that advances the well-being, academic
success and life-long achievement of students. To that end, school nurses facilitate positive students
responses to natural development; promote health and safety; intervene with actual and potential
health problems; provide case management services; and actively collaborate with others to build
student and family capacity for adaption, self-management, self-advocacy and learning."
