    For the health and safety of our students and employees, your child will be sent home if any of the above symptoms/conditions/illnesses are found or suspected during the school day.

    WASH! WASH! WASH!

    Hand washing is the best way to prevent the spread of illness.  Soap and water for at least 20 seconds is still the best way to stay healthy!! Having your student sing his/her ABC’s is a great way to get kids to wash hands for the right length of time.

    Make sure you and your families are up to date with your vaccinations. Contact your health care provider to check the status of your immunizations!

    Children with asthma or other life threatening conditions are at high risk for severe symptoms from influenza and other viruses. Please discuss and update your child’s asthma action plan with his/her doctor. Please make sure your child is using his/her controller medication as prescribed and also has access to his/her emergency medications, such as inhalers, etc.
