Check out this website for information on how to keep your kids healthy during flu season.  Please remember to keep your child home if they have had a fever or thrown up in the last 48 hours, if they have a cough, or a constant runny nose.  We will be sending students home that come to school sick.  We want all students to have a healthy place to learn.
