We've had several cases of flu, strep throat, stomach virus and other illnesses already this year. Here are a few reminders when you are deciding whether or not to keep you child home from school.
If your child vomits before school or during the night, please keep him/her home and have him rest for 24 hours.
If your child has diarrhea during the night or before school please keep him/her home until the diarrhea subsides totally or at least 24 hours.
If your child is running a temperature during the night or in the morning, please keep your child home. The temperature should be flat for 24 hours before sending the child to school.
If your child exhibits signs of pink eye or conjunctivitis (blood shot eye, complains of itchiness, sticky material in eye and discharge from eye), please keep him home and call your physician.
If you have any questions feel free to email me at dlipiner@kingphilip.org
