From Our School Nurse
When to Keep Your Child Home
There may be times when you're not sure it is necessary to keep your child home from school. Here are some symptoms that may mean your child is sick and should stay home.
- Fever (100 degrees Fahrenheit or above)
- Chills
- Running or inflamed eyes or nose
- Rash
- Abdominal pain
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Sore throat
- Enlarged glands
- Excessive coughing
A child should remain at home at least 24 hours with no fever, diarrhea, or vomiting following an illness. Please notify the school that your child will be absent and send a note stating the dates and reason for absence.
By following these guidelines, you will protect not only the health of your child, but the health of his classmates and school staff as well!

Welcome
to the
GREEN
CORNER
IKEA will now Recycle Mattresses
Each year, an estimated 15 to 20 million mattresses and box springs are disposed of in the U.S., according to the
Mattress Recycling Council
. Each day, 50,000 mattresses end up in landfills or are illegally dumped. Due to their size, mattresses take up lots of valuable landfill space and are difficult to compress. This new national program is part of IKEA's People and Planet Positive Sustainability strategy that was launched in October 2012. It shows a commitment to make mattresses easier for consumers to recycle. Click
here
for more information.
