Keeping Our Raccoons Healthy

Our major focus is to maintain, improve and promote the health of all school age children. To meet the needs of all students we ask that you follow these general practice guidelines.

Keep your child home if they have a fever of 100 degrees or more, they should remain at home until they have been fever free without the use of medications for 24 hours.
If your child has vomiting or diarrhea, keep them home for 24 hours after the last episode.
If your child has any rash or skin condition of unknown cause please check with your healthcare provider before sending them to school.

Please note: Blue Earth Area Schools is a smaller school district south of us. When you hear or see this, IT IS NOT Mankato Area Public Schools. This is something that can be confusing because of the county in which we live.
