HEALTH & WELLNESS
Please encourage your children to practice good hygiene at home and at school by washing hands with soap and water frequently. To prevent the spread of illness at school, the following guidelines are helpful:
If your child has symptoms such as vomiting, fever, or diarrhea, they must stay home and symptom free (without the use of medications) for 24 hours before returning. If your child has a bacterial infection, they should stay hime until the antibiotic has been given for 24 hours and your health care provider has given permission for the student's return.
