I am so happy to be taking care of your beautiful children this year.  Let me share a little about myself so you can get to know me.  I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at UT School of Nursing.  Helping children has always been my purpose and for 18 years I have worked with children in different capacities.  Before entering this incredible school nursing career, I worked in the hospital setting as a Medical Surgical and step down ICU nurse. 

 My family enjoys being outdoors and game night around the dinner table is one of our favorite things to do. During the summers, my daughter and I love working with underserved children in countries throughout the world.  

 Being a nurse for children, to me, is more than taking care of the physical, it also includes taking care of their hearts.  Sunfield is a great place for your children to grow in knowledge and know that they are loved.  I am glad to be a part of this amazing mission.

Your School Nurse,

Kristina Popham, RN BSN

The Texas Department of Health and Human Services requires all immunization records to be up to date and uploaded or provided in person to the school nurse before your child can attend school.  Immunization details can be found by clicking on the immunization tab to the left of this page.  Have a fabulous Summer!
