It is the aim of the nurse at Grapevine Middle School to develop in each child a positive approach to healthful living in both attitude and practice.

Hello! My name is Betsie Jaeger. I attended the University of Texas-Arlington for my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I also attended the University of North Texas for my Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Administration. I absolutely LOVE working with kids which is what lead me in becoming a school nurse. I worked at Grapevine High School for 7 years and am happy to now be here at Grapevine Middle School! My husband and I have been in Grapevine since 2011 and our son and daughter have attended GCISD schools. It is my goal to keep our students healthy, safe, and ready to learn!

"School nursing, a specialized practice of nursing, protects and promotes student health, facilitates optimal development, and advances academic success. School nurses, grounded in ethical and evidence-based practice, are the leaders who bridge health care and education, provide care coordination, advocate for quality student-centered care, and collaborate to design systems that allow individuals and communities to develop their full potential."
