Red Wing Public Schools ISD 256
Aug. 25, 2024
Red Wing Public Schools reminds staff and students to stay home when ill. This is especially important if you have a:
Fever over 100 degrees.
Disruptive cough.
Runny nose and congestion.
Sore throat.
Headache and body aches.
Vomiting or diarrhea.
Be mindful of the following preventative measures:
Wash hands often.
Spray down surfaces to disinfect commonly touched areas.
Cough or sneeze into your inner elbow.
Stay home until your symptoms have significantly improved.
Get plenty of sleep.
Eat healthy.
Drink plenty of water to remain hydrated.
The bottom line is you need to stay home if you are sick. This will help to stop the spread of any illness.
Reminder to parents: Any medications that are to be administered during the school day must have a written order by their physician and also a parental permission slip.
All medications must come to school in the original container and have a prescription label with the correct doctor's orders.
Parents/guardians may bring student medications to open houses and mini-conferences, or the first day of school. Students are not allowed to bring medications themselves.
For more information, see Policy 516 or contact a building nurse.
If you are eligible for transportation, you will be receiving information regarding pick-up and drop-off times and location for your child.
On the afternoon of Tuesday, Aug. 29, final bus schedules will be going out. This is what First Student will follow on the first day of school.
