I think the school districts do not know what to call us!!! All of our school nurses (RN and LPN)are classified and not certified personal. Only the teachers are considered certified even though are nurses have degrees even some with master degrees.

Why are LPN's not worthy of being certified rather that classified? We
do the EXACT same things as the RN'S on a daily basis in the School
Nurse setting. We went to school to earn a degree, and you have a
nursing degree to be a school nurse. So...........why should RN's be
the only ones that are considered "certified"? I have been at my school
district for 17 years and we only got an RN in the district 2 years ago
and she is part-time.

Good point Jannette. I am an LPTN and have a license to practice nursing ( since 1979), therefore I should be under a different classification than non-certified employees. The schools must have a nurse just like they must have teachers, regardless of years the nurse went to nursing school.

Sherri-
In response to the email regarding school nurses/classified personnel,
this sounds like a great idea to me. We need to push for a diff.
"sub-group listing" rather than just being lumped in with
other classified personnel, such as janitors, secretaries & para-pro's,
since we do have a license & a degree.
What can I do to help?

I am currently the Wellness committee chairmen, but I don't plan to do
it again next year. I am also the Safe & Drug Free Schools chair, and
that is a very busy committee with grant money attached to it to manage.
The wellness committee could be a full time job! If you had the time to
do all the components that need to be done, that group could make a real
difference. I have also decided that there needs to be money allocated
for that committee to use, otherwise some of the activities just do not
get funded.

Hello,
I am a member of our Classified Personnel Policy Committee at Benton
Schools. I have brought before the committee a proposal of changing the
RN's classification to Classified Medical Professional. Have any of
your districts done this or are any of you grouped in the certified
classification?
Thank you,

Both LPN's & RN's should be included in the "classified medical
Personnel". As long as u are a nurse it shouldn't matter.

Why should just rn's be considered for classified personnel, as an LPN I
feel I earned my degree just like rn's and have to do the same work as
rn's

In past years I have been Chairman of the Wellness committee because a
former superintendent volunteered me. This year I e mailed our present
super and told him I would be stepping down from that position.
I have yet to hear a response and this was made to him at the
beginning of the school year.
