The National Association of School Nurses (NASN) launched the National School Health Data Set: Every Student Counts! data initiative in 2018. The data set is comprised of four main areas and has an overarching goal of identifying best practices in school health to meet the needs of students and improve health outcomes. Management of the recent pandemic might have interfered with school nurses participating in this initiative. The goal of this article is to reenergize and familiarize school nurses with this data initiative and highlight the data points added or expanded since 2018 and why they are important to school nursing practice and addressing health equity of students.
