Just a reminder that there are lots of bugs going around the school. If your student vomits, has diarrhea or a fever, they must be 24 hours symptom-free before returning to school. This is the policy that DPS has in place to ensure minimal contagion to other students and teachers.
Please refer to this document for more information. Thank you for your diligence. - The Health Office |
