    🤒 When to Keep Your Child Home

    Not sure if your child is too sick for school? Use these quick guidelines:

    • Fever: Temperature of 100°F or higher — stay home until fever-free for 24 hours without medication.

    • Sore Throat: Especially with fever or swollen glands. For strep throat, students can return 24 hours after starting antibiotics.

    • Diarrhea: Three or more loose stools in 24 hours.

    • Vomiting: Two or more episodes in 24 hours.

    • Rash: If accompanied by fever, itching, or swelling — check with your doctor.

    • Cough/Nasal Discharge: Persistent cough or green discharge may be contagious.

    • Ear Pain with Fever: May indicate an ear infection — seek medical care.

    • Eye Redness/Drainage: Crusting, pus, redness, or pain could be signs of "pink eye."

    • Chickenpox: Stay home for 5 days after blisters start or until all are scabbed and dry.

    • General Illness Symptoms: Unusual fatigue, paleness, lack of appetite, confusion, or difficulty waking — consult a healthcare provider.

    🦠 Flu, RSV, and COVID-19 Reminders

    • Students with flu or cold symptoms should stay home until fever-free for 24 hours and symptoms have improved.

    • If your child tests positive for COVID-19, we recommend contacting your healthcare provider for guidance.
