Flu-Like Illnesses
Auburn-Washburn schools are experiencing a large number of absences due to flu-like illnesses. We would like to remind parents to be on the lookout
for any of the following symptoms in their children: fever, cough, runny nose, congestion, vomiting, or diarrhea. If children are exhibiting any of the
symptoms please keep them home so that other children and staff are not exposed. Children should be fever-free without medication for 24 hours and have
their cough under control before they return to school. The schools will also be implementing extra cleaning and other measures to help reduce the
spread of illness.
