| I can see this both ways. I however (remember this was when meters weren't as common) went to the nurses office till 1996 for testing, all through elementary and middle school. Not until high school did I have a meter to carry with me and test when I wanted.
I think part of the benefit is it depends on how good your child is with making corrections themselves. If they are running low, do they know how much to eat without going super high. Sometimes a nurse may be better help with that. I think ultimately it depends on how comfortable you, the school, and your child are.
