The Cold and Flu Season are here  If you feel your child is sick or might be sick, we ask you to please keep them at home. We have many mom's who are expecting babies, many new born siblings, and senior citizens who come to CLS and we do not want them or the other students to get sick. Please do your part in making the right decision if you should keep your child home or send them to school.
If your child's temperature is 99.6 degrees or higher, it is considered a low-grade temperature. Please keep your child at home as whatever your child has is now considered contagious.
A child must be fever free and not vomiting, WITHOUT any medications (Tylenol, Motrin, or Ibuprofen) in their system for 24 hours before they can return to school.
Is your child very tired? Does s/he have a dry cough (as opposed to one that's mucus-y)? Is his/her appetite decreased? Any aches or chills?
If your child shows any of these symptoms, we courage you to contact your local physician and discuss your child's symptoms.
Do not forget to let your school secretary know that your child will not be in school and if you would like to pick up any homework after school.

| Outbreak of Measles in California "CDPH is urging caution to individuals who are not vaccinated, especially infants under 12 months of age.
Measles, a highly contagious viral disease wide-spread in many parts of the world, begins with a fever that lasts for a couple of days, followed by a cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis (pink eye) and a rash, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The rash typically appears first on the face, along the hairline and behind the ears and then affects the rest of the body. Infected people are usually contagious from about four days before their rash starts to four days afterwards.
If you have any questions regarding measles, we encourage you to contact your local physician.
