Arkansas School Nurses ~ HB1447  (bill attached) was filed today! 

Please contact the sponsors and your legislator to share your support on this bill. While there is  heavy emphasis on educational reform, we feel now is the time to also speak about school nurses in Arkansas. We understand that school nurses are highly trained and vital to not only the districts  we serve but most importantly our students and communities. 

When contacting legislators, here are Key talking points for your communication: 

*This would allow High quality nursing recruitment and retention for Arkansas 
* Increases  Student outcomes for receiving both physiological and psychological care from a school nurses including mental health coordination
