The Health Services department promotes health and safety in support of student learning. We work in partnership with students, families, teachers, administrators and other district services to support children to be their best as healthy students are better learners! Each school in the district is staffed with a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and overseen by a district Licensed School Nurse (LSN/RN). School nurses are present during the school day to:
Provide first aid
Provide prescribed health procedures
Coordinate and provide hearing and vision screening
Evaluate needs for special services
Monitor immunization compliance
Manage cases for students with chronic health conditions
Monitor communicable diseases
Maintain health records
Plan, participate in and respond to crisis team needs
Provide guidance for COVID-19 and other major health needs
