Abences/Sick Policy

ABSENCES

In the event you will be absent, please call Julie Cancel at 969-0810 ASAP so we can place a sub in your place. If you are aware that you will be absent and would like to email in advance, contact information is listed at the end of this section up to 10 pm on Wednesday evening. After that please call Julie Cancel’s cell phone at 797-3364 or Karen Stearns’ cell phone at 379-7983. Please do not register for classes if you cannot commit to attending. When you are absent, it affects the entire co-op.

SICK POLICY

We understand that all families want to do everything they can to participate in co-op each week; however, if you or your children are ill, we would much prefer you stay home and get well. The following guidelines may help you make your decision whether or not to join us.

Your child may NOT participate in co-op if he or she:
Has had a fever in the past 24 hours.
Has ANY discharge from the eyes or nose.
Has experienced diarrhea or vomiting in the past 24 hours.
Has ANY type of rash or unidentified skin irritation that has not been diagnosed as non-contagious by a physician.
Has a severe cough.

We trust your discretion in deciding whether or not your child is well enough to participate on any given Thursday. However, for the sake of all families, if your child is noticed with any of these conditions, you will be asked to leave for the day. Please understand our decisions are made in the best interest of all the children who participate.
