Health Reminders
We have had a lot of students sent home sick over the last month or so. Although we encourage good attendance, we cannot have sick children in school.
Please keep your child home if they have the following symptoms:
- temperature of 100.5 or above (even with medication)
- vomiting or diarrhea
- pink and crusty eyes
- if they are taking prescription medication for the first day (they can return after 24 hours of medication if symptoms subside)
Please be sure to submit doctors notes, or parent notes (if no doctor visit) to ensure the absence is excused. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation!
