NATIONAL SCHOOL NURSE DAY

Since 1972, National School Nurse Day has been set aside to recognize school nurses.

National School Nurse Day was established to foster a better understanding of the role of school nurses in the educational setting.

National School Nurse Day is celebrated on the Wednesday within National Nurse Week, which is May 6th - May 12th each year. https://www.nasn.org/advocacy/school-nurse-day

School Nurse Day is May 6, 2020

This year's theme – School Nurses: Supporting Students in Times of Crisis – reinforces the changing times of 2020. This year, more than ever, all members of our school communities, school nurses included, have been required to take on unprecedented roles and adapt quickly to changes in their jobs.We celebrate and honor the significant role school nurses play in the health and safety of their schools and communities during this crisis.
