Nurse

Welcome to the Health Office!

I am Sarah Tinney, the Certified School Nurse for the Wellsboro Elementary Schools. I graduated from Mansfield University with a Bachelor’s degree in Nursing in 2012 and obtained my school nursing certification from Slippery Rock University in 2016. I have worked in various hospital and community health settings during my career.

My goal as a school nurse is to provide a safe, healthy environment for the children as they learn, and to meet the individual health needs of each child so they can perform optimally in the school setting. If you need to contact me concerning health issues, feel free to do so at Don Gill, (570) 724-1811, or by email stinney@wellsborosd.org.

I oversee day to day nursing care in the Don Gill Elementary School, while Bev Wesneski, LPN, oversees day to day nursing care in the Charlotte Lappla Elementary School. She can be reached at (570) 724-1941 or by email: bwesneski@wellsborosd.org.
