Lillie C. Evans Elementary is a Full Service School.  A full service school integrates education, medical, social and human services that are beneficial to meeting the needs of children and their families on school grounds.  

Miami-Dade County Public Schools partnered with Children’s Trust and Miami-Dade County Health Department to establish Health Connect in Our Schools.  Our school has been selected to participate in this new initiative.   The School Health Team consists of a nurse, provided by the Economics Opportunity Family Health Center, school social worker, and school health aide who are able to provide basic and clinical health services.  This initiative was launched in 2006 and will be implemented in phases, with every school in Miami-Dade County benefiting from a health team within five years.   

Basic services provided by the team include:

            Emergency First Aid/CPR

            Grade appropriate Vision/Hearing/Scoliosis, Height and Weight Screening

            Counseling and Social Services

            Medication Administration with appropriate documentation

            Chronic Disease Management with appropriate documentation
