Happy New Year from the Nurses Office!
As we begin 2026 and the cold and flu season is firmly upon us, we in the nurses office would like to just remind you of some of the guidelines for sending your students to school.
● A fever is any temperature over 100 degrees. Please keep your student with any temperature over 100 at home. And the student needs to remain home until they are fever free for 24 hours without Tylenol or Ibuprofen.
● If your student is vomiting, please keep them home. And they need to remain at home vomiting free for 24 hours before they can return.
● Students may not carry any over the counter medications, this includes cough drops, nasal sprays, pain medication, or dietary supplements. Any need for these items to be kept at school requires a medical doctor’s form and signature.Please contact the Nurses office with questions.
