We're so proud of our very own Nurse Sue who received the honor of being named the 2023 School Nurse (RN) of the Year in Arkansas! Nurse Sue is so deserving! Here's some information from the Arkansas School Nurses Association about the honor:
It gives me great pleasure to inform you that Sue Wepprecht, RN will be awarded the Arkansas School Nurse Association 2023, School Nurse of the Year Award.
Sue has exhibited excellence in school nursing as recognized by her peers for dedication and service to her students and staff. She is an advocate for her students, supports parents, school staff and has involved the community in her school.
