This is a courtesy message to let you know we have a student that has been diagnosed with the Hand, Foot and Mouth virus. This illness usually presents a high fever followed by bumps on the hand, feet and mouth. It is common illness in young children and is very contagious. To learn more follow this link: https://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/index.html
Please be cautious if your child is experiencing any associated symptoms and as a friendly reminder, your child will need to be symptom free for 24 hours and out the next day at a minimum to reduce the spread of illness.
