Flu Season
It's that time of year! We have had a lot of students out with sickness. Teachers have been talking about the importance of good hygiene with their classes. Please make sure that sick students stay home for 24 hours after a fever, vomiting, or diarrhea to help prevent spreading illness. Thank you!
