Do not send your child to school for the nurse to check his/her temperature.

If sick, keep them home, please.  You are exposing everyone else at school.

If you send your child to school with the above illnesses, you will be called to pick up your child.

Strep throat, impetigo and pink eye (bacterial) require 24 hours of antibiotics at home before returning to school.
