From bandaging scraped knees in kindergarten to practicing breathing exercises with middle schoolers experiencing test anxiety, and prioritizing healthy spaces, school-based nurses support schools in many ways. Thanks to our partnership with IMESD, students in our schools receive care from qualified personnel on a regular basis. We are so grateful for the wonderful nurses serving our schools.
Some lessons last a lifetime, and so does the memory of the people who teach them. The impact of having an amazing teacher can never be erased. To all our incredible teachers: We see you and we appreciate you.
