Symptoms of Illness
Please check your child each day for signs of any illness. The season of germs & illness is upon us. We encourage our students to practice healthy habits of hand washing and sanitizing throughout the school day. If your child should wake with a fever or sore throat, or other symptoms of illness, they should not attend school that day. Thank you for your cooperation with this!
