Start off the day right...
According
to the Cook County Department of Public
Health, studies show that children who eat
breakfast perform better at school. There
is an increase in their math and reading
scores as well as an improvement in their
speed and memory in cognitive tests. Without
breakfast, your child is not reaching
his/her learning potential. Often he/she
has stomachaches, headaches, and fatigue.
Please make sure that your child has a
healthy breakfast before coming to school.
Taking that extra time in the morning to eat
gives your child a great start to his/her
day.
School
Guidelines for Sick Children
Please observe your child carefully each day
before sending him/her to school. Do not
send him/her if they have any signs of
illness or infection. Never send your child
if they were vomiting during the night or
upon arising. After an illness, a child
should be kept home until fully recovered,
has maintained a normal temperature for at
least 24 hours and can take part in all
activities.
Please review the
Health and Safety
Information in your Handbook.
