Nurse: Jennifer Van Gysel, RN, BSN
Hello Pirate families! I am so happy to be at Norterra Canyon as the school nurse. As part of the crew, it is my goal to help students stay as healthy as possible while they learn and grow as individuals and navigate the world around them. As a mom of 5 buccaneers of my own, 1 still at Boulder Creek High School, I am well aware of the challenges students face today and the team effort it takes to help them be successful. Know that when your student comes to the health office for assistance, I will do my best to treat your child, then encourage them to persevere as students. As parents, you may have questions or concerns regarding your child's health. You are always welcome to call me and I will try to help in any way I can.

ALL students are required to be up-to-date on their vaccines. Students turning 11 are required to get a Tdap booster and Meningococcal vaccine. The Meningococcal vaccine cannot be given until on or after the 11th birthday in order to be compliant. Vaccines save lives and prevent the transmission of certain diseases. Please call or email me if you have questions about the status of your student.

Every day we have a choice...a choice to do the best we can that day and a choice to believe that others are doing the best that they can. Let's believe the best in each other, and in turn, bring out the best in each other. - J. Van Gysel, RN
