Who they are
You would join Legal Prep Charter Academy as a part-time school nurse for the 2026–2027 year, starting August 3, 2026. The work sits inside a legal-themed, open-enrollment public charter on Chicago’s West Side (4319 W Washington Blvd, 60624), not a hospital unit.
More about Legal Prep Charter Academy
Your days center on students with IEPs and 504 Plans: delivering the nursing minutes those plans call for and keeping the compliance documentation current. Legal Prep was founded in 2012 and runs a small staff—about 11–50 people. It frames itself as free college-prep education with leadership and civic engagement woven in, and it received Building Hope’s 2023 Educational Impact Award. The network is also expanding; a law-focused campus has been approved to open in Indianapolis. Public listings have shown this part-time Chicago role in the $32–$50 an hour range. Concrete residency, tuition, or ladder details are not in what we have, so those are questions to bring to the hiring conversation. Chicago’s cost of living sits a little above the national level, and West Side commutes reward realistic traffic and parking planning over raw mileage.
Legal-themed college-prep public charter focused on academics, leadership, and civic engagement for Chicago students.

What to weigh
With only 11–50 people on staff, you will not have a large nursing department or a deep clinical bench behind you.
