FY 26-27 CREDENTIALED SCHOOL NURSE

Credentialed School Nurse

Vaughn Next Century Learning Center ("Vaughn"), located in Pacoima, is a large urban public school within the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). Since the early 1970s, low student achievement had been a pattern. In 1993, tired of being helpless and hopeless, Vaughn became the first conversion charter school in the nation and was authorized by LAUSD. The charter was renewed most recently in 2018. Vaughn has over 25 years of experience as a successful independent charter school serving the district's low-income students. This previously failing elementary public school is now a full-service, community-based, K-12th charter school that assures all students are college/career ready, digitally literate, and globally competent.

Vaughn Next Century Learning Center is seeking a dedicated and credentialed School Nurse to lead and manage comprehensive student health services across five school sites. As a key member of the educational team, the School Nurse ensures compliance with all applicable health laws and regulations, supports student access to learning through health services, and supervises a team of medical assistants. This role is critical in promoting a safe, healthy, and inclusive school environment for all students.
