Nursing Department

Welcome to the nursing department of St. Vincent’s Special Education School

St. Vincent’s Special Education School is an amazing and fun place to play and learn. We want everyone to have the ability to come to school and have the best time possible. That means we need to keep our students healthy so that they can attend and learn every day.

• have a fever higher than 100.2
• have been vomiting
• have cold or flu symptoms
• have had loose stools without use of a stool softener or laxative
