  • Fever of 100 degrees or higher
  • Severe headache
  • Severe stomach ache
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Severe sore throat
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Persistent cough
  • Dizziness or fainting

Please remember that our school policy is your child must be fever free without any fever reducing medication for 24 hours before they may return to school.
