A Big Thank You! Happy National School Nurses Week! Kristen Mattioli. Bates Elementary. “Upon entering the office at Bates Elementary, you will quickly notice that Nurse Kristen is an integral part of the school community. In addition to students coming to her office for an array of medical needs, many stop by for a quick hug or word of reassurance to start their day. Her efforts have created a space where students feel safe and cared for, which is an undeniable talent of a great school nurse.” - Mary Texas, APRN, FNP

Happy National Speech-Language-Hearing Month! “Never assume a person who has difficulty communicating has nothing to say.” — Stacy Sekinger Being an SLP in JCPS has always been about meeting the needs of our littlest learners and their families. Everyday I get to play, laugh, and—sometimes—cry with them as we navigate what can be a very overwhelming introduction to the ECE world. Communication is a foundational right for all people. Helping toddlers access that right by developing a way to communicate with their loved ones is so very rewarding. I love my job! — Jenny Lockwood, Speech-Language Pathologist at Early Childhood Diagnostic Center

Graphic says: A Big Thank You. Happy National School Nurses Week! Katelyn Young, Okolona Elementary. “Katelyn works diligently to provide quality care to all students at Okolona Elementary. She goes above and beyond to build relationships with families, ensuring they have access to resources and feel comfortable contacting her with any questions or concerns. A recent example of her commitment is contacting families of students that failed vision screenings and making sure they were aware of Adarsh clinics. This resulted in 5 students getting access to much needed glasses that will play a huge role in their academic success. She has been a great resource to our zone and is always willing to answer any questions from fellow nurses.” - Mary Texas, APRN, FNP
