A student with a fever must remain at home for 24 hours after the
fever has broken. School policy states that a child who vomits at school
will be sent home (refer to School Handbook).
The health policy is strictly enforced to protect both students and staff.
Please council your children on healthy habits, such as coughing/sneezing
into the elbow; wash hands thoroughly with soap and water; do not share cups,
straws, spoons, lip balm, etc.
HEAD LICE: Remind students not to share headbands, brushes, hair accessories,
hats, etc. Head Lice is a reportable contagious illness. If your child has
head lice, he/she needs to be treated. The school office has information to
help - call 978-1355. The Diocese of San Jose and the County of Santa Clara
have a nit-free policy. Students who have been treated are required to check-
in at the school office for a head check before returning to class.
