🤒 Sickness is already going around our schools, and flu season hasn’t even started yet!
To help keep all students healthy and learning, please review the guide below for when your child should stay home and when they’re ready to return.
✅ Staying home when sick prevents germs from spreading and helps your child recover faster.
✅ Returning at the right time means fewer missed days and a healthier school community.
Thank you for working with us to keep our schools safe and healthy for everyone! 💙

Our hearts are heavy this morning as we think about our neighbors in Linton, who were hit by a devastating tornado last night. The images and stories coming out of the community are heartbreaking, and we know many families are facing unimaginable loss and uncertainty today.
We will continue to keep Linton students, families, staff, and first responders in our thoughts and prayers in the days and weeks ahead.
We believe in the power of community—and we believe in Linton.
