As a district, Mansfield Independent School District wanted to validate that Health Services was performing at the highest level possible, implementing evidence-based practices, and achieving the highest outcomes with our students and staff. NASN (2016) had developed the Framework for 21st Century School Nursing Practice to illustrate the practice of school nurses; and sought ways to operationalize the Framework for local school nurses and district level use. This article will explain how the two groups partnered together to develop a tool and assessment program. The article will discuss the approach, challenges, and perspectives of both Mansfield Independent School District and NASN, lessons learned, outcome, and future/potential changes within health services.

Trained Nurse

On March 3, 1999, the U.S. Supreme Court announced its decision in Cedar Rapids Community School District v. Garret F. During the school day, Garret required the services of a specially trained nurse to attend to his health needs. The school district, believing that they were not obligated under the IDEA to provide continuous one-on-one nursing care, refused to provide the services. The Supreme Court held that the school district had to pay for the nursing services Garret required when he was at school. This article analyzes the Supreme Court's ruling in this case and offers recommendations for educators and school administrators regarding the provision of complex health services to medically fragile students in special education.

Education Act

In the past few years, the provision of mental health services in public schools has received considerable attention. When students with disabilities are eligible for special education and related services under the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), mental health services are required if such services are needed to provide students with a free appropriate public education (FAPE). That is, when a student’s individualized education program (IEP) team determines that he or she needs mental health services to receive a FAPE, a school district is required to provide these services. Our purpose is to discuss when school district personnel should identify, evaluate, and serve students with disabilities who may have mental health needs.

Legal And Ethical Issues

This article, in Question and Answer (Q&A) format, focuses on legal concerns raised by practicing school nurses across the country. In this Q & A edition, four questions submitted to the Section Editors by JOSN readers are included, with responses to each. The main topics of the questions are (a) the rights of emancipated and mature minors; (b) the “rights” of nonnurse supervisors to direct or assume the practice of school nursing; (c) the right of a school district to exclude a student from a fieldtrip (versus the right of the student to participate); and (d) the right of a school district to change the level of nursing care provided to a special education student.
