We are seeing many cases of flu and strep. Please help us keep the illnesses down by doing the following:
1. Wash your hands frequently. Soap and water are the best. Hand sanitizer works when you cannot use soap and water.
2. Cough or sneeze into your elbow or a tissue, then wash your hands.
3. Stay home until you are 24 hours fever free without taking any medicine.
Students can bring hand sanitizer and a bottle to drink water out of to avoid sharing germs.
Please remember that returning to school before you are well or fever free makes it easier to get sick again and exposes others to the germs.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Cheryl Hollingsworth, RN
BGISD District Nurse
