Students Returning to School After Illness

As with all other absences, when a student returns to school after an illness, a written excuse indicating the reason for absence is required. Unless a written note is received from a physician, it is assumed that students may resume all normal school day activities following illness. If there is need for exclusion from outside play or physical education, a physician’s note is required. The note should also indicate the date the restriction is to be lifted signaling the student’s ability to return to normal activities.
