We're in the middle of a tough flu season, and we need your help to keep our school community healthy!
🤒 When should your child stay home?
✅ If they have a fever today, keep them home today & tomorrow.
✅ If they needed Tylenol or Motrin for a fever today, they should stay home today & tomorrow.
✅ If you have to give them Tylenol or Motrin in the morning before school, to get them through the day, then they should stay home.
✅ If they're vomiting or have diarrhea today, they need to stay home today & tomorrow.
Let's work together to stop the spread—keep sick kids home so everyone can stay well!
