Flu Information

What You Can Do to Stay Healthy (from the CDC website)

Stay informed. The Center for Disease Control website will be updated regularly as information becomes available.  For more information please call 1-800-CDC-INFO or visit www.flu.gov.

• Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.

• Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread that way.

• Stay home if you get sick. CDC recommends that you stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.

• Follow public health advice regarding school closures, avoiding crowds and other social distancing measures.

• Find healthy ways to deal with stress and anxiety.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

 As we prepare to welcome our students back to school, we continue our focus on providing strong supports, services, and educational programming. One area of educational programming that we would like to discuss as we open our doors is flu prevention.
