WMS Friday Forecast

Before Safety Day and on September 9th, all students will have a lesson on Safety Day purpose and procedures. Safety Day drills will cover: fire drills, severe weather, and a lock down drill. If you have any questions about Safety Day or would like your student to opt-out of the lock down drill, please email: melissa.hickman@d303.org no later than Friday, September 5th at 3pm. We will arrange an alternate place for your student during the drill.

Our yearbook is an OPTIONAL add-on purchase. We have sold out of yearbooks the previous few school years because we only order a small number of extra ones. Order your yearbook now to avoid disappointment later! The yearbook is available to order in the D303 Webstore. Search Wredling then scroll down to locate the yearbook.

We still have 72 Families that have not completed the 2025-2026 Annual Update Form when registering their student for this current school year. Your student may be one of them.

The Illinois Department of Public Health is reporting an increase in cases of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease across the state, including in Kane County. Please review the following information regarding this viral infection and monitor your child/children for any changes in their health.

SYMPTOMS

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease usually starts with a sore throat and a low-grade fever lasting about 1-2 days. Small painful blisters form on the inside of the mouth and throat, on the lips. The skin rash develops as red raised spots, some with blisters that do not itch, usually located on fingers, hands, and feet. The blisters will break easily and form small ulcers. The area around the ulcer may become red.

INCUBATION

Symptoms may occur 3-7 days after exposure to one of these blisters.

TRANSMISSION

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is transmitted by direct contact with saliva, nasal drainage, and feces of an infected person. The condition occurs most frequently in the summer and early autumn.

EXCLUSION

Students should be fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications. Students displaying symptoms of open draining lesions on hands or lesions inside the mouth should also be excluded.

TREATMENT

Fever relief and pain relief is the only treatment. This mild disease takes about 7-10 days to resolve without medical treatment. Strongly encourage hand washing to prevent transmission of hand, foot, and mouth disease, as well as most communicable illnesses in the community.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact the school nurse at 331-228-3704
