The following guidelines are in place to keep our students and teachers healthy:
- If a student becomes ill at school, the child’s parents will be notified.
- If a fever is suspected, we will take the child's temperature under the arm.
- Please do not send your child to school with a fever, even after administering a fever reducer.
- Please wait 24 hours after your child has vomited or experienced diarrhea before bringing the child back to school.
- Please keep your child home if there is heavy nasal congestion and/or frequent cough accompanied by a fever.
- If your child is diagnosed with strep, he or she should be fever-free and on prescription antibiotics for 24 hours before returning to school. All parents of children who have been exposed will be contacted.
- If your child is diagnosed with conjunctivitis (pink eye), he or she should be on prescription medication for 24 hours before returning to school. All parents of children that have been exposed will be contacted.
- We do NOT administer medication to the children.
