School-Based Health Center (Nemours)
When you feel better, school gets better. There is no cost to the family for use of the SBHC.
Christina School District is excited to announce that the wellness centers at the Bayard School, Maurice Pritchett St. Academy, Pulaski Early Education Center and Stubbs Early Education Center are operated by Nemours, a leader in pediatric health and wellness. This incredible partnership promises to enhance the support and resources available to our students, ensuring they receive the highest quality care.
In-School Health Care
Because it's located right in school, SBHCs help students overcome many obstacles to receiving good health care - obstacles such as lack of transportation, inconvenient appointment times, or worries about cost and confidentiality. SBHCs provide comprehensive medical and mental health care, treatment and health education, to promote a healthy lifestyle.
Each SBHC is operated by a partnership that includes Nemours, Christina School District and the Delaware Division of Public Health, Department of Health and Social Services.
