Abstract:
A continuing education program was developed by School of Nursing faculty at a Northeast Texas university to strengthen school nurses' ability to use data for effective communication. The 8‑hr School Nurse Data Science Boot Camp included a keynote speaker introducing data science concepts, followed by morning skill‑building stations on data interpretation and communication strategies. Afternoon stations guided participants in applying these skills to create slide presentations tailored to specific school nursing scenarios. The 15 participants were divided into five groups, each assigned a scenario and stakeholder audience. Groups developed and delivered presentations that demonstrated their ability to translate school health data into meaningful messages. Participants reported high satisfaction with the boot camp and expressed interest in an advanced offering. This program provides a valuable local continuing education opportunity and supports a growing regional partnership among school nurses, School of Nursing faculty, and Education Service Center personnel.
