title: Recognizing diabetes in children: what does it look like?
abstract: Both type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes are on the rise in children. School nurses should be familiar with these conditions and have an understanding of who is more likely to be affected, what the presenting symptoms are, and how to support the student, family, and school personnel when a diagnosis is made. This article serves as a reference for school nurses and highlights key resources freely available for their use.
