Students may be sent home for illness at the discretion of the school nurse. Reasons to be sent home include, but are not limited to, fever of 100.4 degrees or above, vomiting and diarrhea. Any student with a fever should be kept home until they are fever-free without the use of fever-reducing medication for 24 hours. Students should also have no signs of vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hours prior to returning to school.
