Oxford School District in Lafayette County Seeks Licensed Substitute Nurses

Oxford School District posted on March 6, 2026 that it is actively recruiting substitute nurses licensed in Mississippi to cover health and wellness needs across its schools, directing interested applicants to the district employment page. The district’s announcement uses the job title "Substitute School Nurse" on multiple platforms and lists coverage across district schools rather than a single campus.

The vacancy appears on LinkedIn with the job title "Substitute School Nurse" and location listed as "Oxford, MS," and the LinkedIn capture shows the posting as "1 week ago." The LinkedIn interface also displayed application prompts such as "Join to apply for the Substitute School Nurse role at Oxford School District" and the recruitment badge "Be among the first 25 applicants," indicating the listing was newly visible on that professional platform at the time of capture.

A separate Learn4good job posting provides the most detailed administrative classification and duties captured: Learn4good lists FLSA Status: Exempt, Department: School Support, Reports to: Principals, Position Type: Substitute, and Location: All Schools. The Learn4good description states, verbatim, "School Nurse identifies and treats health disorders among students and provides instruction in the maintenance of good health and disease prevention. The employee must evaluate the physical conditions of students and refer students to appropriate resources as needed. Decisions made by this employee require discretionary judgment and analysis. The work of this employee is seldom reviewed while in progress and is performed under general supervision."

The district’s social outreach also promoted the openings; a Facebook fragment reads, "OSD is now hiring substitute nurses! ⚡️ Must be a Registered Nurse ...", and the same Facebook capture notes the district is "now hiring for multiple coaching positions at OHS." These social-post fragments signal the district is using both its job board listings and social media to reach potential applicants, though the captures do not include a full social post or an official HR statement.

Application guidance in the captured materials directs candidates to district channels but provides no direct URL or contact details in the fragments obtained. The original posting directed applicants to the district employment page, and an Applitrack snippet advises, "We're here to help! For questions regarding position qualifications or application procedures, please contact Oxford School District directly." The available captures do not include pay rates, number of openings, application deadlines, or a specific HR contact, and the materials do not clarify whether the "licensed in Mississippi" requirement in the March 6 announcement maps specifically to Registered Nurse licensure versus other nursing credentials.

As of March 7, 2026, recruitment for substitute school nurses in Oxford is active across multiple public listings and social posts; the district’s employment page and Oxford School District HR remain the primary avenues to obtain the full job posting, exact licensure requirements, compensation details, and application instructions.
