Note from the Nurses – A stomach bug, strep and other illnesses have been reported in our schools. We are taking additional measures to stop the spread here at school. Ways to do this include covering your cough, washing hands, and staying home when ill. Students are required to stay home and may not return until 24 hours after fever, throwing up, or diarrhea free without the use of fever reducing medication. Reminder: we cannot medicate for symptoms of illness.
