Nurse

Our school nurse provides direct student care - assessing student health needs, conducts mandatory health screenings, oversees maintenance of student health and immunization records, administers medication, provides emergency first aid to students and staff and works with the Department of Health in the control of communicable diseases. Our school nurse, Barbra Lujanovic, performs a variety of duties at the Early Childhood Center to keep our students healthy and safe.  

We ask that you keep your student's health and emergency information updated with current names and telephone numbers by contacting Mrs. Lujanovic at 636-443-2903. Student Health Information is updated yearly. Please keep your school nurse updated on your child's health status, such as surgeries, medications, illnesses/diseases, new diagnoses, or other conditions that may affect your child's school performance.
