School nurses; direct the Office of Healthy Schools to develop salary schedule for that all school districts shall use when employing.
HB 632 requires Mississippi's Office of Healthy Schools to create a standardized salary schedule for school nurses based on their education and experience. All public school districts must use this schedule as the minimum pay rate when hiring school nurses. The bill directly affects school districts (which must implement the schedule) and school nurses (who will receive standardized pay based on qualifications). This provision, added to Section 6(g) of the existing law, aims to establish consistent compensation without specifying exact salary amounts. The bill died in committee before becoming law.
