Take a minute to look at wonderful data collection done by School Nurses in the 2023-2024 School Year. 

The Children's Nebraska School Health Program and Nebraska School Nurses Association teamed up to collect data from school nurses. Chronic conditions and health office visits were counted by using the National Association of School Nurses Uniform Data Points in an online survey open from May to October 2024. Nurses from 38 districts provided data, representing over 117,000 of Nebraska's 365,467 students. Here are the results and what they mean for our state.
