    Reminders from the Nurse
     
    We have several cases of flu, strep throat, stomach virus and other illnesses throughout the school 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/her 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 has a fever (over 100 F.) during the night or in the morning, please keep your child home. The temperature should be normal 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.
