2025-26 Guidelines for Illness

Please take a moment to review the district guidelines for illness before sending your child to school.

 

Vallivue Health Guidelines

 

General Return to School Guidelines:

 

  • No fever without using fever-reducing medicine for at least 24 hours.
  • Rash is resolved, or a note is provided by a healthcare provider.
  • Uncovered skin sores are resolved, or are crusting and a note is provided by a healthcare provider.
  • Vomiting has resolved overnight, and the child can hold down food/liquids in the morning.
  • Diarrhea has improved and the child is no longer having accidents, or bowel movements are no more than 2 above normal per 24-hour period. 
  • Respiratory virus symptoms are improved for at least 24 hours. In general, “symptoms are improved” means that a person no longer feels ill, they can keep up and do their daily routine just as they did before they were ill, and any remaining symptoms, such as a cough or runny nose, are very mild, intermittent, or infrequent and do not interfere with school.
