S 2573 

Establishes position of State School Nurse Consultant in DOE to promote quality school nursing services and school health programs

S2573 (Ruiz) NJEA believes that the health and welfare of all students should be protected. This bill establishes the position of State School Nurse Consultant in the Department of Education to promote quality school nursing services and school health programs for New Jersey’s students. Having a certified school nurse serve in this capacity, and work with school districts and school nurses throughout the state, will help ensure the health and safety of our students, educators and communities.

NJEA urges you to SUPPORT S2573.
