School Nurse
School Nurse
The Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall School is seeking a collaborative and hard-working individual to serve as our School Nurse. As a school that embraces a Multiple Intelligences philosophy, we seek a nursing leader who believes that it is not “how smart you are” but rather “how you are smart.” The School Nurse will work closely with our students, families, faculty, and staff to foster a healthy and supportive school community.
About the Role
Our School Nurse is far more than a healthcare provider — this leader helps shape the health culture of our school. Working independently under state and agency guidelines, the nurse brings expert clinical judgment and vision to every aspect of our health services program. This role incorporates both hands-on care and a broad perspective on adolescent wellness. In addition, there is a possibility of significant summer work in our camp program for additional compensation.
The School Nurse reports to the Director of Counseling and Wellness and will collaborate closely with the health and wellness team, composed of school counselors and an Athletic Trainer. We hope for a start date of July 1, 2026, but are committed to finding the right candidate for the role.
