We wanted to let families know that Hand, Foot, and Mouth is going around right now in nearby communities and here in Kewanee.
If your child has been diagnosed with Hand, Foot, and Mouth, please keep them home until their blisters are drying up and they’ve been fever-free for at least 24 hours. While some doctor notes may say kids can come back once the fever is gone, please remember they can still be contagious for up to 10 days.
Since symptoms can look a little different for each child, feel free to reach out to the school nurse to talk through your child’s situation.
Thanks so much for helping us keep all of our students healthy and learning!
