Health & Wellness

The Cameron County School District recognizes that student wellness and proper nutrition positively impact students’ well-being, growth, development, and readiness to learn. A school environment that promotes student and faculty wellness, healthy habits, proper nutrition, nutrition education and regular physical activity is an essential element of the total learning experience. In order to create this environment, the school nurse’s provide health screenings and assessments as mandated by the State of Pennsylvania, refer students to health care providers for treatment and follow-up, provide care to students who are ill or injured, and educate the students about wellness and caring for their health. 

Mandated health services include:

We also work closely with the athletic director, athletic trainer, and the various sports coaches to maintain compliance with Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (PIAA) health policies.

Please reach out to the school nurse any time you have questions, concerns, or if your child’s health changes.
