Nurses Corner

Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year!  I will be spending time in the high school and middle school on a regular basis again this year in addition to my main office at the elementary and look forward to caring for your children and working to make our school a healthy place to learn. If your child has a special issue that you would like me to assess I am in the middle school on Tuesday mornings and the high school on Wednesday mornings.  *AS OF 11/29/11 I WILL BE AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOL ON TUESDAYS AFTER 1:30 pm AND THE HIGH SCHOOL ON WEDNESDAYS AFTER 1:30 pm.  As always if there is an emergency I am available at any time.  Visit the links to the right for health information for you and your family. Don't forget to visit our School Health Council site to see our current efforts to improve the health of our school.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns please contact your personal health care provider or you can contact me at 517/849-9175, ext. 1404 or the direct line to my office at 517/826-7114. You can also contact me to report your child absent from school at tvarney@jonesvilleschools.org
