School Nurse Team

About our Team

MVSD Certified School Nurses oversee student health care in several buildings and programs.  We work closely with families, health care providers, and school staff to create a school health plan that provides the best educational experience for your child.

When your child comes to the health room for acute care, our team of nurses, health room assistants, and trained office staff are ready to help.

For students with complex health care needs requiring a licensed nurse, we have 3 campuses with full-time nurses on site:

Little Mountain Elementary/Mount Baker Middle School Complex

LaVenture Middle School

Mount Vernon High School

Please contact your school nurse to make health plans for your child!
