2024-2025 COVID-19 Protocols
The Texas Department of Health Services along with the CDC has updated its school exclusion criteria to align the requirement for Covid-19 with those for other respiratory viruses like the flu. Students and staff now only need to be excluded from school until they have been fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication.
If your child is sick...
Children must be free of fever (less than 100.0 degrees) for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications (such as Tylenol or Advil / Motrin) before returning to school. Children must be free of diarrhea for 24 hours before returning to school and need to be eating and drinking without any problem. If a child vomits two or more times within 24 hours, they will need to stay home for at least 24 hours to ensure they are not contagious.
Please call the school nurse if your child has been diagnosed with a contagious condition such as pink eye, strep throat, chicken pox, head lice, impetigo, ringworm, flu or has vomiting and/or diarrhea.
