The Colorado Association of School Nurses (CASN) would like to announce our Executive Board members for the 23-24 School Year:
President: Tammy Jeffery (Jefferson County Schools)
Past President: Teresa Ross (Denver Public Schools) Term 23-24
President-Elect: Jacquelin Lalor (School Nurse Consultant with Colorado Children's Hospital at District 27J)
Colorado NASN Director: Laura Phillips (Montessori Peaks Academy, Jefferson County Charter)
Secretary: Sarah Phillips (Colorado Early Colleges Douglas County and Aurora) Term 23-25
Treasurer Churee Pardee (Aurora Public Schools) Term 22-24
Treasurer Denise Wilson (Lotus School for Excellence, Aurora) Term 23-25
CDE Consultant (non-voting) Sarah Blumenthal
Administrative Assistant Linda Botnick (Retired DPS RN)
Congratulations to Tammy, Jacquelin, Sarah, and Denise on your election to the CASN Executive Board!
Typically the President-Elect is President the following year and then Past President. This allows for an easier transition. We have two Treasurers with two-year terms. They alternate to ensure we have one Treasurer that is experienced.
My thanks to Linda Patterson, who was Educator Chair, President-Elect, President, and Past President. She is transitioning off the Board. I appreciate her leadership and friendship. At one point, we were both Education Chairs. I can tell you firsthand about her hard work and dedication to CASN.
My thanks also go to Bev Biela, who is transitioning off the Board as Treasurer. Thank you for all your hard work!
Please talk to other Colorado School Nurses about joining our professional organization. Here is the link.
Our Annual CASN Conference is November 3-5 at the Embassy Suites in Loveland. We will be providing information soon.
There will be lots of opportunities for CASN members to become involved. Please let me know if you are interested. Tammy will be happy to hear of nurses interested.
