Hopatcong Schools gambling with the safety of their students

Hopatcong Schools gambling with the safety of their students

Hopatcong Schools (specifically the Superintendent) was made aware of the nursing crisis in the district last May, yet

continues to allow schools to be in session without a nurse in the building. Inexcusable with having children with life threatening allergies, asthma and other medical conditions! Not to mention the countless unexpected accidents and emergencies that can occur. The time it would take for a nurse to come from another school (and consequently leave that school without coverage) can be too long. What will it take for them to realize they are gambling with the safety of our children?
