Don’t exist in many schools … budget cuts, you know.

My friend’s daughter’s school has a nurse there for half a day and then the nurse goes to another school for the other half day.

I don’t remember a nurse’s office when I went to high school back in the ‘70s.

I think this mini clinic idea is something that is badly needed.
