Illness Guidelines

  • We recognize that proper attendance is vital for learning. However, there are conditions in which your child must follow sick guidelines:
    • Fever- Students must be fever free for at least 24 hours (without the use of fever-reducing medication)
    • Diarrhea-Students must have no diarrhea for at least 24 hours before returning to school.
    • Vomiting-Students must have no incidence of vomiting for at least 24 hours before returning to school.
  • Students may be sent home for illness at the discretion of the school nurse. Reasons to be sent home include, but are not limited to, fever of 100.0 degrees or above, vomiting, and diarrhea.

This is for their health as well as for the health and well-being of the other students and staff.
