Working hard to meet the special medical, academic, and personal needs are the school nurse, counselor, and resource teachers. Ranging in service to SAIS-R from one to four years, these people are dedicated professionals who enrich the school program offered to all. Mrs. Shirley Jacobs, the 6-9 school nurse, reads a professional manual. Sometimes she is busy doing eye screening or audiograms for students. Breaking from preparation for standardized testing, Mr. Tim Hansen, counselor, prepares a late-arriving student's schedule. Mrs. Dorothy Sherling is a resource teacher for the junior high.
