H.7. Approve Clinical Internship Agreement with California State University, Fresno.
Rationale:

I would like to request the Board's approval of the Clinical Internship Agreement with California State University, Fresno (CSUF).  The signed agreement allows the CSUF nursing program to do a pediatric or graduate rotation in our high schools.  The nursing student will be supervised by a registered, licensed, and or certified professional along with the University faculty.

This is a good opportunity to show incoming nurses the possibilities for School Nursing.  I have mentored many students from CSUF and CSUB over the last 19 years here at the district.  The district is known for our high standard of care for this community.  We both benefit from the program.  All the School Nurses that have worked in our district and elementary district have come from these programs.

Thank you for your consideration.
