Important Health Notice

As you may know, the flu can be easily spread from person to person. There has been an influx in the number of flu A sicknesses, therefore, we are taking steps to reduce the spread of the flu in Central Crossing High School. We want to keep the school open to students and functioning in a normal manner during this flu season. We need your help to do this.

For now we are doing everything we can to keep our school functioning as usual. Here are a few things you can do to help.

● Know the signs and symptoms of the flu. Symptoms we are seeing of the flu include starting with a headache, followed by a fever (100 degrees Fahrenheit, 37.8 degrees Celsius or greater), cough, sore throat, a runny or stuffy nose, body aches, and feeling very tired. Some people may also vomit or have diarrhea.

● Teach your children to wash their hands often with soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub.

You can set a good example by doing this yourself.

● Teach your children not to share personal items like drinks, food or unwashed utensils, and to

cover up their coughs or sneezes using the elbow, arm or sleeve instead of the hand or tissue.

● Keep sick children at home for at least 24 hours after they no longer have fever or do not have

signs of fever, without using fever-reducing drugs. Keeping children with a fever at home will reduce

the number of people who may get infected.

● Do not send children to school if they are sick. Any children who are determined to be sick while

at school will be sent home.

Please visit www.flu.gov for the most current information about the flu. We will keep you informed of any additional changes to our school’s strategy to prevent the spread of flu.

Sincerely,

Kara Polichetti BSN, RN
