School Exclusion Criteria
Please remember that according to the PWCS regulation #758-1, children must remain home from school for at least 24 hours if they have a fever of 100.0 degrees or higher and for 24 hours after an episode of vomiting or diarrhea. If your child has strep throat, he/she must be on antibiotics for at least 24 hours before returning to school. By complying with this regulation, this will help us maintain a healthier environment for everyone at school. We want to assure you that the entire building is being cleaned by our custodial staff on a regular basis with a school approved disinfectant.
