There has been an abundance of Strep and Flu running through Austin ISD. If your child says that they aren’t feeling well, be sure to take their temperature before sending them to school.

Also be aware that the policy for AISD is that a child must be fever free for 24 hours without a fever reducing medication before sending them back to school.

However, many doctors are currently recommending that they be fever free for 48 hours in order to be sure that students are no longer contagious.

Please help us keep our Kiker kids healthy and well by adhering to the recommendations.

Sincerely,

Your School Murse,

LTC Tarren Kingsley, RN
