Day School Community Highlights
To help prevent the spread of infection and better maintain infection control, please note the following information. Evansville Day School defines a "fever" as a registered body temperature of 100 F or higher. A child who has a fever needs to remain at home until he or she has been fever-free (without Tylenol or Motrin) for 24 hours prior to returning to school. If a student is determined to have a fever while at school, the parent/guardian will be notified and the student sent home. This policy is in place for everyone's benefit. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school nurse, designee, or administrative assistant(s).
Some other reasons that your child could be sent home without a "fever" include, but are not limited to:
* Vomiting* (2 episodes without fever, 1 episode with fever)
* Diarrhea* (2 episodes without fever, 1 episode with fever)
* Unexplained rash
* Head lice or nits
*A child experiencing two or more episodes of vomiting or diarrhea in a 24 hour period needs to remain at home until he or she is without symptoms for 24 hours prior to returning to school.
Tennis Equipment Needed
Have tennis racquets or tennis balls lying around that you no longer use? Please consider donating them to the PE department for our students to use during our tennis unit later this spring!

Last Call for Gala Baskets!
