KJHS Student Council Spring Spirit Week starts this Monday! Who will win the Spirit Stick????
Parents, we are REALLY trying to get over this sickness hump. As a reminder, if you child is sent home with a fever or after vomiting, our policy is they MUST stay home at least 24 hours from the last time they vomited/have a fever. This ensures that your student is set up for success and that we are not continuing the spread of germs throughout the classroom.
Parents,
Strep continues to be prevalent in our schools, community, and across the state. Please see the attached image regarding strep and what we can do to stop the spread.
