Y.A.L.E. School

The short version

You would be the school nurse at Y.A.L.E. School’s Northfield campus, a New Jersey state-approved private school for students with disabilities that has been open since 1976. Your days run 8am to 3pm, Monday through Friday, across a 180-day school year from September to June, with a six-week summer session from July 5 to August 15. The work is concrete and close-in: office visits, physicals, medications, and attendance reporting for students ages 3–21 who come from South and Central Jersey counties with social, emotional, learning, and behavioral disabilities.
