The Marshfield R-I School District Health Services department is comprised of highly qualified registered professional nurses and licensed practical nurses and medical assistants, providing health education, case management and direct nursing care to students and staff. The Nursing staff serves as a liaison between the family, healthcare provider and the school, performs student health screenings and monitors the immunization status of students.  Nurses are assisted by trained unlicensed personnel to provide minor first aid, medication administration, and clerical assistance.

The vision of the Health Services department is to:

• Promote the safety, health, and wellness of all students and staff at Marshfield R-I School District 
• Reduce health-related barriers to learning, thus improving student achievement
• Promote a positive, collaborative relationship with students, families, colleagues and the community
• Promote best practices in school health services through high-quality professional development.

Students must be healthy to be educated and educated to be healthy.  

Missouri state law requires that all students must be up-to-date on all immunizations in order to attend school.

Please note: Students entering 8th grade and 12th grade are required to have additional immunizations on file before the first day of school in August. If your child is not up to date, proof of receiving the Tdap (incoming 8th graders) and the MCV (incoming 8th graders and incoming Seniors) may be emailed to enrollment@mjays.us
