Please keep your student home if they have a fever of 100 ̊ F or higher and a cough or sore throat. They should stay home until their fever has been gone for 24 hours without fever reducing medications (such as Tylenol or Advil). Vomiting and diarrhea are other symptoms that require exclusion from school.
