Not Feeling Well?
Many of our students have been affected with significantly high temperatures, illness and the following symptoms:
- Fever of 100 degrees F or higher
- Nausea, vomiting or diarrhea
- Severe headache
- Red, watery eyes with yellow discharge
- Undiagnosed rash
- Inability to attend to learning activities
- Change in usual medical status
Please refer to the Wake County Health policies regarding these health conditions. Students are to stay home until they have been without fever-without taking fever reducing medication-for at least 24 hours). We have had several students return to school early which has caused a relapse of temperature and illness.
