As we prepare for Christmas and look forward to gathering with family and friends to celebrate the birth of our Savior, please remember that this is the time of year when communicable diseases and illnesses are at their highest.
We have heard that there have been cases of head lice in the upper grades and have had to send some elementary children home with pinkeye. Head lice is often transmitted by sharing hair brushes, ponytail holders, and hats (like Santa hats!) Head lice is also often a single, household occurrence with repeated incidents rather than school-wide outbreaks.
Should you notice your child itching their head particularly around their ears or nape of their neck, please check them before sending them to school. Should they have an active case of head lice, please keep them home and treat them with an over-the-counter head lice shampoo. Upon returning to school, please bring the receipt of purchase or the box top for proof of treatment.
Pinkeye is always a concern regardless of the time of year. If you notice any discolored discharge from your child's eyes or if your child's eyes are "stuck" shut in the morning, please keep them home and have them seen by your physician.
As always, please do not send your child to school if they are actively ill- vomiting, diarrhea, fever- for the safety and well-being of your child, the other students and staff.
I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy New Year!
Thank you!
Mrs. C
Come celebrate with MHCA tonight as we celebrate the birth of our Savior with our music program and pie auction!
