Please use this information provided to learn more about who the members of our health care team are, what they do, and how to contact them. They all play a key role and work together in ensuring our students and staff are safe and cared for while in school. Due to the various titles of people involved on our team, when sending a student to the clinic, please send students to “the clinic” rather than " the nurse. " |
