IT can sometimes be difficult to know when to

keep a child home from school for an illness. The

basic guidelines below may be helpful:

Anytime a child complains of not feeling well, take the child’s

temperature. When a child’s temperature is 100 degrees or higher, the

child should stay home from school. Usually, a fever means that the

person is contagious. In order to help reduce the spread of infections and

viruses, a child should NOT come to school if there is a temperature of 100

degrees or higher, frequent sneezing, coughing, an active nasal discharge,

nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea. This list of symptoms is not complete

but is a general guideline.

If a child is sent home from school with a fever above 100 degrees,

vomiting, or diarrhea, they should not return to school until they are

symptom free for 24 hours.A sick child is not able to concentrate and

their learning is compromised. Most children become embarrassed if they

vomit or have an accident at school related to diarrhea.

The most important and effective way to help prevent

the spread of illness is frequent hand washing with soap

and water or when that’s not available the use of antibacterial soap or

wipes.
