We kindly ask you to keep your child at home if he/she exhibits signs of contagion:

Diarrhea

Vomiting

Impetigo (rash caused by strep or staph)

Headache

Sore throat

Persistent cough

Yellow/greenish nasal discharge

Redness, drainage or discharge from eyes

Elevated temperature

Infectious rash (chicken pox, measles)

Scabies, head lice or other infestation

We try to let parents know when something serious is going around. If your child has something contagious, please let us know so that we can inform other parents of what to watch for.

Your child should be able to return to school with your physician’s approval 24 hours after antibiotic treatment has begun or 24 hours after the child’s temperature has returned to normal.

Please remember that individual hygiene practices can make or break it for us all. Thank you for your help.

If a Child Gets Sick at School

When a child becomes ill at school, i.e., temperature of 100 degrees or more, headache or stomachache, etc. parents will be notified and asked to pick up the child as soon as possible. We will make them comfortable and provide supervision until a parent can pick up. If we call you, please come as soon as possible, because your child will want to be home.
