Parent's Advisory Committee Meetings

Illness Reminder

It is our goal to keep your children and families safe and healthy. If your child exhibits any cold/flu-like symptoms, please keep your child at home. We realize you all have commitments, and keeping your child home may interfere with these. However, keeping your child home if they are unwell is the best way to help keep everyone safe and healthy in our preschool.

As noted in our parent handbook on pg. 5:

• If your child is ill, you must keep him/her at home
• if your child becomes ill while at school, you will be called to come and pick him/her up
• Your child must be medication-free (cold medication, Tylenol, Advil, etc.) for 24 hours prior to the start of class time.

This information can also be found in the preschool's Policies & Procedures under Section 9.

On another note, should your child be unusually fatigued, lethargic and appear unwell before arriving at school, it would be appreciated if you kept them home to monitor their symptoms should they suddenly fall ill and require your immediate care.
