Nurse

Lexington Park Elementary has a full time registered nurse to assist you and your family each and every day.  The school nurse is your child's health advocate.  We are responsible for providing emergency services for injuries and sudden illness, health appraisal and assessment, disease prevention and control, health counseling, environmental health and accident prevention, school/community health programs, health education lessons, and program evaluation and reporting. 

Please remember, it is very important we have current phone numbers on record for your family.  Notify the school secretary immediately if there are any changes to your contact information.  In the event of an emergency, having this information is vital.
