At
MHR, the health of our children is, of course, paramount. Good health
awareness and habits are always taught and practiced as a part of the
curriculum. In addition, we put top priority
on sanitation in the classroom (including routine hand sanitizer use
throughout the school day) and extensive supplementary sanitation by the cleaning
contractors (including bleaching of commonly touched surfaces such as desks and
doorknobs). We remind everyone that any sick individuals, including
adults, should stay home, follow the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)'s
and their physician's direction, and keep the school informed. We, in
turn, will keep you informed--you can get the latest from the school
here on this page. Authoritative
health information directly from the CDC
is linked below. We've also included Diocese of St. Pete policy and
background during previous flu outbreaks. We
also ask that if you need to keep a child at home, it only takes a few
seconds to report the absence to the school
using
our online form. This report
fulfills all student handbook absence reporting requirements, is
much faster for parents than calling the school recording number, and is
much faster and more accurate for the office than transcribing early
morning phone messages.
