Don't Send Them Sick

I know it is hard sometimes to know when your child is truly sick enough not to go to school, so here are a few things I will call home for.

1. An uncontrollable, deep, junky cough.
2. A fever.  No exceptions.
3. A pale face.
4. Acting droopy or slow with any of the above symptoms.

I realize some of these symptoms may not have happened when they were at home and can come on suddenly at school, but if your little one seems to be getting worse, please leave them home.  Preschoolers are not known to be the cleanest of little creatures.  I do often remind them to cough or sneeze into their elbows and we use sanitizer liberally, but good habits take time to form.
