When a Susky student comes down ill at school, the current procedure requires that the school nurse call the responsible parent or guardian to come to the school, pick-up the “patient,” and make necessary provision for appropriate medical care. When a teacher needs to see a doctor during a school day, time off necessarily must be scheduled for the appointment. Both scenarios may become a thing of the past in 2015--if SCSD Superintendent Bronson Stone can hammer out the details and bring his vision to reality.

This vision, in Mr. Stone’s own words, “brings a smile to my face.” The gist of the Superintendent’s dream is that a huge number of school days are currently lost to illness, but it doesn’t have to be this way; there is a better way. Susquehanna Community School District Directors agreed he may well be on to something here. And at their Wednesday, August 6 school board meeting Directors so empowered Mr. Stone to pursue the vision. More about that later.
