6/11 Update:
Dear Parents:
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health is continuing to advise schools to take measures for surveillance and prevention of Swine-Origin Influenza A H1N1.
In addition to reinforcing proper hand washing and cough etiquette, parents should assess all family members each morning for symptoms of influenza (a fever with any of the following – cough, sore throat, or runny nose).
If your child has signs of the flu, they should stay home and not attend school. All such students should stay out of school for at least 7 days after their symptoms start, or 24 hours after their symptoms go away – whichever is longer.
When your child is well again and has stayed home according to the guidance above, they do not need to be tested for the flu before returning to school.
We appreciate your continued cooperation and support as we work together to reduce the spread of the flu in our community.
