Hello! 🙂 We have seen a recent increase in flu and stomach virus symptoms in our classrooms.  Please monitor your child for any fever, nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.  Should they experience any of these symptoms, please keep them home and monitor them.  Per recent health department guidance, students should remain home for at least 48-72 hours. If your student would need additional days to rest and recover from any of these symptoms, please contact Nurse Kelly at 304-588-8967 or Nurse Autumn at 304-377-6665. Your student will have those days excused due to illness.
