Nurse bids farewell after 15 years
After 15 years of benefiting from her health projects and reliable warmth and care, Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School (MVRHS) must bid farewell to school nurse Linda Leonard, who will retire at the end of the school year.
Ms. Leonard has enjoyed working with students. “Fifteen years ago I got the job of my lifetime: working with teenagers. I love it, I think kids listen to nurses,” said Ms. Leonard. “School nurses aren’t here for just Band-Aids. I’ve already sent two people to the Emergency Room [today],” she said.
