Senate Resolution No. 931

BY: Senator COMRIE

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 May 8, 2025, as School Nurse Day in the State of New
 York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official days that are set aside to inform key audiences about the role
and value of school nurses in caring for our most precious resource, our
youth; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 8, 2025, as School
Nurse Day in the State of New York, in conjunction with the observance
of National School Nurse Day; and

 WHEREAS, Since 1972, National School Nurse Day has been set aside to
recognize school nurses; and

 WHEREAS, National School Nurse Day was established to foster a
better understanding of the role of school nurses in the educational
setting; and

 WHEREAS, Students are the future and, by investing in them today, we
are ensuring our world for tomorrow; and

 WHEREAS, Families deserve to feel confident that their children will
be cared for when they are at school; and

 WHEREAS, All students have a right to have their physical and mental
health needs safely met while in the school setting; and

 WHEREAS, Students today face more complex and life-threatening
health problems requiring care in school; and

 WHEREAS, The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the essential role
school nurses play in student health and academic success; and

 WHEREAS, School nurses have served a critical role in improving
public health and in ensuring students' academic success for more than
100 years; and

 WHEREAS, School nurses address the home and community factors (e.g.,
social determinants) that impact students' health; and

 WHEREAS, School nurses act as a liaison to the school community,
families, and healthcare providers on behalf of children's health by
promoting wellness and improving health outcomes for our nation's
children; and

 WHEREAS, School nurses support the health and educational success of
children and youth by providing access to care when children's cognitive
development is at its peak; and

 WHEREAS, School nurses are members of school-based teams such as
school health services, 504/ IEP, and disaster/emergency planning to
address the school population; and

 WHEREAS, School nurses understand the link between health and
learning and are able to make a positive difference for children every
day; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to join the
National Association of School Nurses in celebrating and acknowledging
the accomplishments of school nurses everywhere and their efforts of
meeting the needs of today's students by improving the delivery of
health care in our schools, and offering gratitude for school nurses who
contribute to our local communities by helping students stay healthy, in
school, and ready to learn, and keeping parents and guardians at work,
not just on School Nurse Day, but at every opportunity throughout the
year; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 8, 2025, as School
Nurse Day in the State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
