Health reminder as winter continues

The winter months are upon us and illness is on the rise.  Please help the district prevent infection by keeping students home when they have:

• Vomiting or diarrhea in the last 24 hours
• A fever higher than 100.4 degrees in the last 24 hours
• Uncontrollable coughing
• Strep throat (if on medication less than 24 hours)
• Conjunctivitis (if on medication for less than 24 hours)

Please call to report any absences, and note your child’s major complaint or illness. Please be aware that a written note is required by New York State law for all absences and late arrivals.
