Supporting Health& Wellness: Essentials for Our School Nurse

My Project

As the school nurse, I play vital role in ensuring that our students are healthy, safe, and ready to learn. The items I am requesting will directly support the health and well-being of our students, allowing them to remain focused on their education. For example, essential medical supplies will help me address minor injuries quickly, while hygiene products can prevent the spread of germs, and a small snack can fulfill a missed breakfast.

The goal of this project is to create a well-equipped, welcoming space where I can provide the best care possible.

When students feel safe and healthy, they are more engaged and better able to succeed academically.

My students are special because they demonstrate resilience and a strong desire to learn, even when faced with challenges. Many of them rely on the school nurse as their first line of support for health-related concerns. By funding this project, you are not only providing medical supplies, but you’re also empowering our students to thrive in a healthy and supportive environment.
