News and Notes
Dear SHGS Families,
Happy Tuesday! I hope you all enjoyed the weekend.
As it is still cold and flu season, I feel it necessary to remind everyone of the school illness policy. If your child has a fever, vomiting and/or diarrhea, they may NOT return to school until they are symptom free for 24 hours. This policy is in place to help keep the flu and other viruses from spreading and to keep students and staff healthy.
Thank you for your support and cooperation.
Warm Regards,
Tracy Strub
