National School Nurse Day Proclamation
May 8, 2024
Whereas, students are the future and, by investing in them today,
we are ensuring our world for tomorrow; and
Whereas, families deserve to feel confident that their children will be
cared for when they are at school; and
Whereas, all students have a right to have their physical and mental
health needs safely met while in the school setting; and
Whereas, students today face more complex and life-threatening
health problems requiring care in school; and
Whereas, school nurses have served a critical role in improving
public health and in ensuring student’s academic success for more
than 120 years; and
Whereas, school nurses are professional nurses that advance the
well-being, academic success, and life-long achievements of all
students by serving on the front lines and providing a critical safety
net for our nation's most fragile children: and
Whereas, school nurses act as a liaison to the school community,
families, and healthcare providers on behalf of children’s health by
promoting wellness and improving health outcomes for our school’s
children; and
Whereas, school nurses support the health and educational success
of children and youth by providing access to care when children’s
cognitive development is at its peak; and
Whereas, school nurses are members of school-based teams (e.g.,
school health services, 504/ IEP, disaster/emergency planning) to
address the school population; and
Whereas, school nurses understand the link between health and
learning and are in a position to make a positive difference for
children every day; now
Therefore, be it Resolved, that the Pueblo School District No. 60
Board of Education does hereby proclaim Wednesday, May 8, 2024,
as National School Nurse Day.
