Cooler and damper weather is upon us! Please make sure to send your child to school in appropriate attire: jackets, hats, gloves, boots and sneakers to change into.
Accidents and spills happen. I have very limited change of clothing left here at the nurse’s office.
Please send a change of clothing for your child to keep in their locker or class.
There has been an influx of children affected with upper respiratory infections caused by a bacterial infection requiring antibiotics. It is certainly tough to distinguish viral vs. bacterial without testing, so if your child does develop a fever and upper or lower respiratory symptoms (cough, shortness of breath, congestion), consult with your family Doctor if further treatment is needed. Additional info can be found by clicking here.
As a reminder, students should not be in school if they have:
Fever at or above 100 degrees
Vomiting
Diarrhea
In general, your child should be without fever, vomiting, or diarrhea for 24 hours with no use of medication, before they return to school.
Attendance/Absence: ParentSquare will send a notification mid morning if your child is absent that you will be able to reply with a reason, you must wait for that notification to come through. If you do wish to let us know prior, feel free to send me a message on ParentSquare. Click here for additional info regarding reporting attendance.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me anytime with any concerns.
