Tatum ISD approves pay rates for substitute nurses
Summary
The board approved paying licensed vocational nurses (LVNs) $80 per day and registered nurses (RNs) $100 per day for substitutes, to ensure continuity of student health services.
Assistant Superintendent Drenon Fite, Jr. told the Board the district needs substitute nurses to maintain continuity of student health services, including medication administration and emergency response. Following that presentation, Curt Smith moved to set substitute pay at $80 per day for LVNs and $100 per day for RNs; Erika Smith seconded the motion and the board approved it 5‑0.
The board recorded the pay rates as part of its action items for staffing and student‑health continuity. The motion does not list additional conditions or an effective start date in the meeting record.
