School Nurse Day

** Wednesday is National School Nurse Day **

Join us as we tell our school nurses how much we appreciate what they do to keep  staff and students healthy:-)

FIVE WAYS A SCHOOL NURSE BENEFITS THE SCHOOL  

  • ATTENDANCE- THROUGH HEALTH PROMOTION, DISEASE PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT;

  • ACADEMICS- IMPROVED ATTENDANCE MEANS HEALTHY STUDENTS ARE IN THE CLASSROOM READY TO LEARN;

  • TIME- SAVE TIME FOR THE PRINCIPALS(HOUR PER DAY); TEACHERS (20 MIN PER DAY); SECRETARIES(45 MIN PER DAY);

  • STAFF WELLNESS- IMPROVE THE GENERAL WELLNESS OF STAFF;

  • ACCOUNTABILITY- COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL AND STATE LAW; ADVOCATING FOR ADEQUATE STAFFING; PREPARING FOR EMERGENCIES; ADDRESSING STUDENT PHYSICAL/MENTAL HEALTH LINKS TO ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT.

Thank you to all WCS School Nurses & Happy National School Nurse Day!
