The staff in the nurse’s office at Jonathan Law is always working hard to keep students healthy, clean, and safe. 

Most Law students have gone to the nurse at least once during the school day and seen one of Law’s two school nurses – Mrs. Luth and Mrs. Lane.

Luth has worked as a nurse for 20 years and has been at Law for the past three years. Lane, who has been a nurse for over 25 years, recently joined the Law staff. 

“My initial college journey was in elementary education,” Lane said. “I switched gears to nursing in my second year as I really enjoyed the sciences and had a passion for serving the community as a whole. Early in my career I was a substitute school nurse in an elementary and a middle school; school based clinic. I worked in a large health care system for over 25 years.”

Lane said she is especially excited to join the nursing staff at Law because she is a Law graduate herself.

“I graduated from Jonathan Law,” Lane said. “I feel like I hit a home run. The staff have been a great support and students have been very welcoming.”

Law Principal Mr. Darcy said that the COVID-19 pandemic showed just how important and valuable school nurses are to everyone.

“The importance of nursing staff was highlighted when we experienced COVID and has continued to grow over the past few years,” Darcy said. “They provide daily support to students and staff which adds to the safety and well being of all.”
