Health News

As we take a break from school and head into our February Winter Vacation, please keep in mind that seasonal viruses (COVID, FLU, STREP, RSV) and germs are still out there! We ask that you continue practicing proper handwashing with your child daily, especially after bathroom use, before eating and preparing food.


As with most illnesses, HYDRATION is very important (especially with our little ones) throughout recovery. Frequent small amounts/sips of (low sugar) fluids are best... appetite will eventually return when the body is ready. Please review the information provided and always reach out to your Family Practitioner or seek medical care if symptoms worsen for further guidance. Wishing you a fun week with health & happiness.


Please use our absence line (978-251-5188 Option 0) or our attendance email (chipsattendance@chelmsford.k12.ma.us) to report your child's absence from school and be sure to state the reason for the absence (illness, appointment, travel, etc). If your child is out due to illness, please let us know the nature of the illness (fever, vomiting, cough, etc.).


Nurse Kristen can be reached by calling the CHIPS main number (978-251-5188) and selecting option 3.
