Please keep your child home and notify us if any of the following apply:
• Cold or flu-like symptoms (congestion, cough, sore throat, headache)
• Fever, chills, or night sweats
• Breathing concerns (shortness of breath or difficulty breathing)
• Body discomfort (muscle or body aches, fatigue, confusion)
• Loss of taste or smell
• Stomach symptoms (vomiting or diarrhea)

Our days include hands-on activities and shared materials, and early notification helps protect our students and staff, especially during the incubation period of some illnesses. We pray daily for our families.

Return to school when all symptoms have been completely gone for at least 24 hours. Thank you for helping care for our school community.
