We've heard all about it on the news and other media - H1N1 flu is circulating, and as we get deeper into flu season, it will probably start affecting people in all areas of our community. Here are some simple precautions our health authorities have suggested we can all begin practicing:
1. Wash hands with soap or hand sanitizer frequently. Also keep regularly touched surfaces clean (such as door knobs, taps and appliance handles).
2. Cough and sneeze into your elbow.
3. Stay home if you are sick. If you have any concerns about your symptoms, go see a doctor.
4. Learn more about immunization programs available, and decide if they are right for you and your family.
If your child develops any cold or flu symptoms, such as fever, coughing, sneeze and nasal congestions, aches or chills, please keep them home until they are symptom free for 24 hours.
We are working hard to keep classroom surfaces and student hands clean and sanitized.
We hope that we can all continue to stay healthy and well! Thanks for your support!
