“We feel very strongly at Kennedy Academy that good attendance is extremely important to your child's success at school. They must be here to learn.” 

It’s hard sometimes to decide whether to send your child to school when he or she doesn’t feel well. Here are some guidelines to help you know when to keep your child home from school.

These guidelines are the standards of practice for the SBCSC health services department. They were developed from Indiana laws requiring exclusion for contagious diseases that could be spread at school.

We will always do our best to help you make a good decision in all of our students' best interests, based on our experience and knowledge as nurses, after considering the potential for spreading illness and infections at school.
