๐ค๐คง When Should Your Child Stay Home from School? ๐ ๐
We understand that it can be tough to decide if your child should stay home from school. To help, here are some guidelines:
Keep Your Child Home If They Have:
๐ก๏ธ Fever above 100ยฐF: Must be fever-free for 24 hours without medication before returning.
๐ Sore Throat or Tonsillitis: If diagnosed with Strep Throat, they can return 24 hours after antibiotics begin.
๐ด Rash/Spots: Wait for doctor clearance or 24 hours after treatment for ringworm, scabies, or impetigo (affected area must be covered).
๐ท Bad Cough/Cold Symptoms: Keep home until the cough improves and they feel better.
๐๏ธ Eye Discharge (Pink Eye): Return 24 hours after treatment begins and symptoms improve.
๐คข Vomiting/Diarrhea: Wait 24 hours after the last episode without medication before returning.
Healthy Tips for Families:
โ๏ธ Avoid saying, "Try to make it and call me if you feel bad." Instead, try: "Youโve been fine for 24 hours, letโs have breakfast, and youโll feel great at school!"
โ๏ธ Encourage positivity and monitor symptoms carefully.
When Itโs OK to Attend School:
๐ฌ๏ธ Mild cold symptoms without a fever.
๐ผ Allergic conjunctivitis diagnosed by a doctor.
๐ช Vague aches, pains, or fatigue.
๐ฉน Diagnosed non-contagious skin conditions.
