SUMMARY:   (Brief description summarizing the overall purpose and objectives of the position.)

The primary responsibility of this position is to serve as a contract LSN for districts, deliver direct student health services, overseeing health offices, and ensuring compliance with state and federal requirements.

In addition to direct service, this role includes consultation, training, and systems support to help districts strengthen health practices and emergency preparedness. This position requires regular travel between districts and the ability to work independently across multiple school sites.

POSITION TYPE/EXPECTED HOURS OF WORK:  (Minimum essential factors of daily position.)
This position is currently a 0.5 FTE role during the school year (mid-August through mid-June), with a flexible schedule based on district needs. As contracted services expand, there is a clear opportunity for the position to grow into a full-time (189-day) role.
