 NURSE CARTIE: School Nurse 

Nursing has always been my career passion.  I receivd my BSN degree from the University of Minnesota in 1980.  I've had the opportunity to work in various hospital, business and school settings.  I have been working as a school nurse since 1999.  I enjoy building relationships and promoting health and wellness, while providing compassionate nursing care to all students and staff.  I have been married for 40 years and have 2 children who have blessed me with several grandchildren!  I love to read, garden, spend time with family and friends, protect and raise butterflies, travel and experience nature, learn new information about health and wellbeing, and of course....be a Nana!!

My hope is that you find DLE clinic a peaceful, caring, nurturing environment, where all students feel supported, loved, valued and cared for.  It is well known that healthy students are better learners.  I hope to foster in our student body the desire and the tools to be healthy life-long learners!
