TCRHS School Nurse


Meet your school nurse

Nurse Taylor's office is an affirming & nonjudgmental space for getting honest guidance about your health and for connecting with resources.

A school nurse can help with a lot more than bandaids. You can get ice and basic first aid supplies in the main office. Soap, water, scrub, dry well, bandage. BOOM! You're ready to fly solo.

Now, if are worried that wound is turning into something funky, visiting the school nurse is a great idea. Bleeding a bunch? Yep, call the nurse. Not sure what kind of doctor to go see or how to afford care? Definitely get in touch with your school nurse. We're here for all the complicated health and life stuff you might be navigating.

We know you aren't blank slates walking in to learn everyday. Your physical pain, your mental health and your disabilities all come along with you, which can make learning or getting through the school day a lot harder, especially without the right supports in place. Schools are here for EVERYONE to access education and school nurses help make that possible. We can advocate, coordinate, and educate within the school to help meet your health and learning needs. It matters to us that you feel safe and supported so you can make the most of the amazing teachers and opportunities here at TC Roberson.
