Proactive Steps to Combat the Flu




With the high number of flu cases in Texas and across the country, district health officials are reminding students, parents, and staff members to stop the spread by staying home if you have the flu or flu-like symptoms.  If you or your child is sick, stay home for at least 24 hours after the fever subsides without the aid of fever-reducing medication (ie Tylenol, Motrin, Ibuprofin, etc.) Click on the above images to enlarge.
