WHEN DO I KEEP MY CHILD HOME?

Deciding when a child is too sick to attend school can be difficult. Many parents/guardians have questions regarding when to send their child to school. Please know that while it is very important that your child attends school on a daily basis, good health is more important than a perfect attendance record.

In order for your child to feel well enough to learn, and to control the spread of communicable diseases in school, please refer to the following guidelines when you consider whether or not your child should attend school on a particular day.

It is generally acceptable to send your child to school:

Mild cold symptoms---feels well, no fever, occasional cough, some nasal congestion

Stomach ache---mild, no fever, no vomiting, ate some breakfast

Eyes---itch, no redness, no drainage

Vague complaints of aches, pains, or fatigue---no fever

Sore throat---no fever, mild

Cough---occasional, non productive

Skin rash---known cause, being treated

Please keep your child home for the following:

Fever above 100 degrees---your child should be fever-free for 24 hours before returning to school

Sore throat---moderate to severe, fever (please contact your physician)

Rash/spots---fever, unknown cause (please contact your physician)

Cough/cold---fever, frequent cough, severe nasal congestion

Eye inflammation/drainage/discharge---contact your physician if your child’s eye is red, cloudy, has drainage, eyelids matted after sleep (if medication is prescribed, must be given for 24 hours before returning to school)

Vomiting and/or diarrhea---may return 24 hours after the last episode

Ear pain---consult with your physician

Acute pain---requiring narcotic pain relief (ex. Codeine after a tooth extraction)

Head lice (pediculosis)---Child must be treated with head lice shampoo, all nits removed,         and checked by the nurse before returning to school

Please contact Mrs. Hayden if the decision is made to keep your child home. Mrs. Hayden can be reached at 270-8104.
