Sick Child

Every child will likely have a cough or a cold sometime during the school year. If this is not serious, send your child to school as usual. Remind your child, as the teachers will, the importance of taking steps to avoid spreading germs, and to wash their hands often and well.

If your child is showing the symptoms of a more serious illness, such as vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps, or fever, please keep them at home and seek the appropriate medical attention.

There is a temporary First Aid station at the school, with a bed for students to rest if their symptoms develop suddenly during the school day. If your child is not feeling well, you will be contacted to discuss the appropriate action to be taken.
