SPECIAL EDUCATION FOR SCHOOL NURSES
Where Education Matters
Special Education for School Nurses is the first virtual online school nurse community designed to support School Nurses and School Administrators. This website was created by an expert School Nurse with over 25 years experience in Special Education.This website is for all School Nurses and School Administrators working with students and families in the Special Education process. It is very important for School Nurses to understand the Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) and how to apply this process. School Nurses will learn the principles and apply them by writing Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance (PLAAFP) summaries and writing student's IEP goals with health issues that is impacting student's learning.
It is our mission and passion to assist in the learning and application of these principles.
Our unique approach includes hands on 1-1 support for School Nurses. It offers professional learning opportunities including but not limited to Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and live webinars. Our Special Education for School Nurses website is more than just a website; this unique learning experience is an expert support network designed to help School Nurses and School Administrators in the Special Education process.
We invite you to join our community and explore our dynamic online resources to learn and apply these principles with your students.

"I am a previous student of Frances Belmonte-Mann in the UIC School Nurse Campus Certificate Program. I found Mrs. Belmonte-Mann to be responsive to my questions and any concerns. Always willing to take the extra time and really know her students. I enjoyed her classes and her insights into school nursing! Best instructor ever!!!"
