Staying Home When Sick
People who have symptoms of respiratory or gastrointestinal infections, such as cough, fever, sore throat, vomiting, or diarrhea, should stay home. Testing is recommended for people with symptoms of COVID-19 as soon as possible after symptoms begin. People who are at risk for getting very sick with COVID-19 who test positive should consult with a healthcare provider right away for possible treatment, even if their symptoms are mild. Staying home when sick can lower the risk of spreading infectious diseases, including COVID-19, to other people.
If symptomatic, stay home until at least 5 days have passed since symptom onset, and fever free*, and other symptoms have improved. Anyone who tests positive for COVID-19 must stay home until at least 5 days after the day they were tested.
*Fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever suppressing medications. Fever is a temperature of 100° Fahrenheit (37.8° Celsius) or higher.

Did You Know......
During the pandemic, schools were able to offer no cost meals to all students due to temporary program flexibilities provided by the federal government.
These flexibilities have expired, and the U.S. Congress did not provide funding in this year’s budget to allow schools to serve free meals to all students in
the 2022-2023 school year. Your school nutrition team looks forward to serving healthy, balanced meals to every student in the new school year.
These meals offer a good source of nutrition for children.
