Student Health and Wellness

IF YOUR CHILD IS ILL, PLEASE KEEP THEM HOME

It’s no fun to be sick, and it’s especially no fun to share an illness with the rest of the class (and teacher!). Most common colds, flu and stomach bugs are caused by viruses that spread easily through bodily fluids, sneezing, and/or coughing. Our goal is to keep our students in school and teachers in their classrooms. The more we spread viruses and bacteria, the more days of school students and teachers miss. If your child is ill, we are happy to work with you to send work home so your student can catch up once they are feeling better.

Do not send your child to school if they have any of the following symptoms:

FEVER - Any fever greater than 100.4 degrees F. Students may return when they have gone 24 hours without a fever while not on a fever-reducing medicine like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)

VOMITING - At least 1 episode that is unexplained in the past 24 hours. Students may return to school when they have not vomited in the last 48 hours.
DIARRHEA - Three or more episodes of watery or loose poop in 24 hours OR sudden onset of watery or loose poop. Students may return when they have not had diarrhea in the past 48 hours.
COUGH - If your student has a new cough, please keep them home until their symptoms have been improving for 24 hours. If they have a persistent (not new and it won’t go away) cough that does not improve, they may need to be seen by a licensed healthcare provider before they can return.
RASH/SKIN PROBLEM - Any new rash if not previously diagnosed by a health care provider OR if the rash is getting bigger OR if there are new sores/wounds developing day-to-day OR if the rash, sores or wounds are draining and cannot be completely covered with a bandage. Students may return to school when drainage can be covered by a bandage without soaking through and clearance is given by a licensed health care provider.
PINK EYE/CONJUNCTIVITIS - Keep your student home for unexplained redness of one or both eyes AND colored drainage from the eyes OR eye irritation accompanied by vision changes OR symptoms such as eye irritation, pain, redness, swelling or excessive tear production that prevent active participation in usual school activities. Students may return after symptoms resolve OR after seen and cleared by a licensed healthcare provider.
LICE - Students may return to school after one lice treatment has been administered.

Thank you for helping keep our students and teachers healthy!
