Helping Children Stay Healthy

How does your school handle these important issues?

Children in need of help for health problems. Many parents remember when their own school had a full-time school nurse. Retirements and budget cuts have meant fewer school nurses in some school districts. What can you do to assure that care is available at your child's school?

Children in need of help for emotional problems. Children experiencing family problems or other stresses will have difficulty learning. Who is available at school to help children handle emotional difficulties while tending to the business of learning?

Medication management. Each year millions of children take medications during the school day. How does your school handle this important responsibility?

School lunch & nutrition: Are your kids eating healthily at school?
