School Nurses
In the Christina School District, every school has a certified school nurse or registered nurse. Our school nurses play a crucial role in ensuring that every student receives the necessary care for their physical, social, emotional, and academic growth. They evaluate the health and learning requirements of students, tailoring personalized plans to meet their unique needs. They also provide crucial support to children with medical conditions that might otherwise make it difficult for them to join in classroom activities with their classmates.
School-Based Health Centers
Christina School District offers expanded health services through the District’s partnership with Christiana Care Health Services and Nemours Children's Health at select schools. School-Based Health Centers (SBHC) provide comprehensive medical and mental health care, treatment and health education, to promote a healthy lifestyle.
