Over 10% out sick. :(

I have to ask very nicely, or else I get 'tude from the head guy. He likes his bread buttered in a certain way. I haven't figured out how yet, and we clash sometimes.

Teachers are proactive here. We have conjunctivitis going through, so when another falls, the teachers bleach wipe everything, as well as the end of the day, with special attention to door knobs and faucets. We have contracted cleaning twice a week in the evenings, not conducive to infection control methods.

Outside of your lack of Psych services, your school sounds pretty darn awesome, MNX2.

More than 2 kids out of a class and the teachers are already on the janitors to super clean or they are just doing it themselves. I really don't have to say anything!

I did email all the teachers and suggested they get sanitizing wipes from the custodians to use to wipe all shared surfaces.

Can't hurt, might help.

Spring break can't get here fast enough!

Most teachers have students here, so they have incentive to squelch it. I really do work with abnormal teachers, they make my work here awesome. We are truly a team for our kids. I keep saying I'm in paradise.

I am off for a week starting at 3 PM today! Yay!!

We have 10% of kids out today as well...but not all illness. Many starting their April break early.

i had i think it was 14 % out of one school during the height of flu season. The close point is 15%. I called the health dept just as a head's up and to see if they wanted us to do anything beyond a deep clean of the classes. They came into my office with guns a blazing because i gave them something "fun" to do which resulted in me having to do 5 days of mind numbing paperwork and absence surveillance. I told my contact that next time i'd wait until it actually hit 15%
