Guidelines to Decide If a Student Is Too Sick to Attend School

1. If your student has a fever of 100 degrees or more, the student should stay home for 24 hours after the temperature returns to normal.
2. If your student has vomited or had diarrhea, the student should stay home until 24 hours after the last episode.
3. If your student has had any rash that may be disease related, or if you do not know the cause, check with your family physician before sending the student to school.
