We face flu season every year.  Please focus on helping your family stay healthy.  How do you do this?

After getting vaccinated, protect yourself from the flu by doing the following:

1. Wash your hands frequently.
2. Cover your coughs and sneezes
3. Stay home when you are sick, keep your children home from school when they are sick.
4. Do NOT send your children to school until they have been fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medication.  (a fever is a temperature over 100 degrees)
