Principal Note: Flu Season Guidelines
With the flu season in full swing, we would like to remind everyone that if your child has flu symptoms, they should not attend school. Symptoms to watch for include:
With the flu, fever is usually present, along with chills, headache, and moderate-to-severe body aches and tiredness.
Symptoms can come on rapidly, within three to six hours.
Coughs are dry and unproductive and sore throats are less common, but may be present.
If your child has recently been ill, please be aware of the following guidelines before having them return to school: they must be fever-free for at least 24 hours WITHOUT the aid of medication.
To help keep your children healthy, make sure they get plenty of rest and eat a good, nutritious diet, with plenty of fluids. Make sure they are dressed properly when playing outside.
The single most important thing you can do to keep your child free of illness is to teach the proper way to wash hands. Make sure to use soap and scrub hands for 20 seconds (2 verses of "Happy Birthday"). Rinse hands in running water and dry thoroughly.
Please notify the school if your child has been diagnosed with influenza, strep or any other contagious illnesses.
Panda Pride,
Rachel
