Note from School Nurse 

Please take some time to read this letter from Mrs. MIller, our school nurse, about the flu and viruses. Please remember that it is school policy that a student remains home for 24 hours after vomiting has subsided or a fever has broken. Should your child be diagnosed with the  Norovirus, a 48 hour timeframe is needed after symptoms are over before returning to school.
