Contagious Disease

"The 24 Hour Rule" - When your child has either a fever, diarrhea, or has been vomiting due to illness,

DO NOT send your child to school until they have been fever-free, without diarrhea, or have not thrown-up for at least 24 hours.

When your child is diagnosed with any communicable (contagious) disease, please report this to the Health Office as soon as possible.

Some of the common communicable diseases among school-age children include: Strep Throat, Scarlet Fever, Pneumonia, Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye), Pediculosis Capitis (Head Lice), Impetigo, Ringworm, and the flu.

With your cooperation we hope to reduce the spread of all contagious illness at our school.
