| School During COVID-19 Document |
| Kathy Bowman, our school nurse, shared the document, "School During COVID-19 Information for Physician & APCs in Wisconsin," as a resource for us to use in our office when fielding phone calls from concerned parents. We are posting this for our families as information that may be helpful for them in making the decision to keep children home and/or to seek testing for COVID-19. This information is not intended to be all-inclusive or an endorsement of Aspirus. We intend to consult with our school nurse regarding each suspected, confirmed or reported case of COVID-19 in making decisions.
Parents: If your child is sick, please keep them home. They do not need to have the symptoms outlined in this document to decide to keep them home. Please call the school office to report their absence. Thank you for supporting our efforts to provide the opportunity for in-person learning with our students.

| Guidelines for Keeping Ill Children Home |
| Here are a few reminders as you make the decision on whether to send your child(ren) to school. For most illnesses, we require you wait 24 hours after all symptoms are gone (or on medication) before sending your child(ren) to school. This is not only for your own student's wellbeing, but also for other students. |

| Tips for Parents:Talking to Children about Violence |
| With 24/7 news coverage on tv and through our phones, it is highly unlikely that our students have not heard about tragedies and violence taking place around us. For instance, many of us recently received an Amber Alert through our phones. Many students had questions about this situation. It can be hard to know how much or how little to share with our children. When students hear stories like this, they often need reassurance they are safe. Here is a resource that provides tips on how to reassure your child(ren). |
