Director - School Program
The mission of the School Program is to provide opportunities to continue normal educational activities and to provide re-entry services to ease the transition back to the community school by working as part of the health care team. As the first Director of the School Program, I have worked to increase the visibility of the School Program and expand the services offered. We now have two classrooms, K-6 and 7-12, and have four teachers who are St. Jude employees in addition to personnel from Memphis City Schools. Children and adolescents who are here for treatment can go to school using books and assignments from their home community school. For students going back to school, we can assist with school re-entry issues.
