Attention Pre-K Families: Important Flu Shot Update

As we approach the colder weather, we’d like to remind all Pre-K families that flu shot records are due by December 23rd.

Please be sure to submit your child’s flu shot record to us before this date. After December 23rd, your child will not be able to attend school until we receive proof of the vaccination and Nurse Joy has cleared them to return. We encourage you to hand in the proof of vaccination early to avoid any unnecessary absences.

Guidelines for Sick Days

As the colder weather sets in and illnesses increase, we ask that you carefully consider whether your child is well enough to attend school. Please refer to the chart below to help guide your decision when your child isn’t feeling their best:

  • If your child has a fever, they should stay home until they are fever-free for 24 hours without medication.
  • Vomiting or diarrhea: Your child should remain home for at least 24 hours after the last episode.


Your child's health and well-being are our top priority, and we want to ensure everyone stays safe and healthy during the cold and flu season.



Thank you for your attention and cooperation!
