Health Office Update
Influenza (flu) season is among us. We have seen a rise in Influenza-like Illness in the community, and our schools. We can all work together to prevent the spread of Influenza by staying home when you are sick, covering your cough/sneezing, and performing regular hand hygiene.
KEEP YOUR CHILD HOME IF:
They have a temperature of 100 degrees or higher.
They are throwing up or have diarrhea.
They are injured or too ill to participate in routine school activities.
TIPS FROM YOUR SCHOOL NURSE:
Help your child be healthy and successful in school by making sure:
They get 8-10 hours of sleep every night.
They eat breakfast each morning.
They bring a water bottle to stay hydrated.
Emergency contacts are up to date with the school office/in Skyward.
Your child meets all State of MN immunization requirements.
Students can return to school after an illness when it has been 24 hours without a fever, vomiting, or diarrhea without the use of medication.

Inclement Weather Plan
What happens if school is closed for the day?
Cambridge Isanti Schools may use eLearning days due to inclement weather. A flexible eLearning Day means that school can be in session without students and staff being physically present at the school. Below is more information on our eLearning Day.
Teachers will post the day's lesson in Google Classroom by 10:00am. All teachers will be available from 10am-3pm by school email or within their open Google Meets. Students may work on lesson's independently throughout the day. If a student needs help with a lesson they can access their teacher according to the modified schedule pictured below. Students are able to access Google Meets via their school issued Chromebook or other personal devices

Practices will happen immediately after school until 5:15 unless otherwise communicated by the coach.
