What Is A School Nurse?
A school nurse is like an encyclopedia in a school. Most students find it informative and full of useful material. Some students refer to it daily, weekly, or several times during the school year. Most students know where it is kept and its availability. Other students have difficulty locating it. A few students prefer not to use it except in an emergency -then they learn to treasure it. Some of the school faculty seem to be proud to have this book in their collection and refer to it often, while others consider it just another book. Some faculty members appreciate this great book, but others do not. This book is handled carelessly by most of the people and it has no place of its own on the bookshelf, like other books. It is shifted around and may be found in the most inconspicuous places in a school. In an emergency, the cry goes out over the public address system so everyone can try to locate this valuable book. This encyclopedia may be found anywhere in that large school - comforting someone in the yard, hallway, restroom, on the stairs, in a classroom, in the teacher's lounge, cafeteria, or even in a corner behind a door with its pages torn and cover bent.
