Illness Guidelines

We have had several children with cold symptoms followed by a fever. A few days later they develop a rash.

If your child has a fever of 100 degrees or higher (taken under the arm), please keep them home. They can return to school when they have been fever free for 24 hours.

If your child develops a rash, please have her/him checked by your doctor before coming to school. Your child may return with a Dr.'s note and must be able to participate in normal childcare activities. Please check the attendance clip board for information regarding common infant rashes.

If you have any questions regarding our policies and/or whether your child can return to school, please call the infant room. Thank you.
