When to Keep Your Child Home from School or Child Care
To help prevent the spread of illness and ensure a safe learning environment, we encourage families to review this information on when to keep your child home from school or child care. If your child has a fever, persistent cough, or other symptoms of a contagious condition, staying home ensures a quicker recovery and helps protect classmates and staff. Together, we can support the health of our entire school community.
