Public Nursing High School

Who We Serve

We’re proud to be Nashville’s first public charter nursing high school: a tuiton-free high school open to all Davidson County families. Our mission is to prepare future nurses and healthcare heroes for meaningful, high-demand careers in the medical field.

At our school, students don’t just earn a diploma. They take their first steps toward a future in healthcare. Through a blend of rigorous academics, hands-on learning, and career-focused experiences, we help students build confidence, purpose, and real-world skills.

Why a Nursing High School?
