Nurse

The school nurse monitors student health issues and the administration of medicine to the students. The school nurse is on call in the event that a child becomes seriously ill or injured and when there is a public health concern at the school. The school nurse is responsible for maintaining the student health records and conducting mandated health screenings. The nurse is on site approximately 1 day per week. Please direct any medical concerns or questions to Nurse Phoebe Reid-Chambersat preidchambers@rcsdk8.net

Required health screenings include the following:

1) hearing tests for all kindergartners; and,

2) vision screenings for students in grades K and 3.

Parents are advised of the results ONLY when the nurse determines that further consultation with a child’s physician is necessary.
