Nurse News
Hand washing is our number one defense against the spread of illnesses, as well as staying home while feeling ill or running a fever. During the cold and flu season, if your child has a temp above 100 degrees, please keep them home. Students may return when they are fever free for 24 hours, without the use of fever reducing medications.
Lice cases typically spike in September and January. Recently we have had an increase in lice cases. Proactively doing head checks at home can help reduce the spread of lice. Please report all cases to the nurse! If your child has lice, they must be treated before returning to school. Combing with a lice comb for 2-3 weeks after treatment is an essential part of lice treatment. See the resource linked below.
Thank you and stay well!
