Healthy Students Are Better Learners

Regular handwashing is one of the best ways to remove germs, avoid getting sick, and prevent the spread of germs to others. Many diseases and conditions are spread by not washing hands with soap and clean, running water.

Germs can be unseen. Wash your hands.

Respiratory Virus Guidance

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has updated the recommendations on respiratory illnesses and symptoms. When you are sick with symptoms, please isolate yourself from others. You can resume normal activities and return to school when symptoms are improving and have been fever free for 24 hours without taking medication.
