'Tis the Season, Mustang Country, and we are not talking about the upcoming Holiday Season. It is Cold, Flu and Virus Season!! Please remember that if your child has fever, vomiting or diarrhea that they should stay home until they are symptom free for 24 hours WITHOUT medication. We are passing some nasty bugs around school and we need your help stamping them out!
Free flu vaccines at McDermott Elementary to students on Friday, November 1, 2024, from 9 AM to 11 AM. Only students who have both pages of LRSD and ADH consent forms (front and back) filled out, signed and return to school will receive the vaccine.
If you do not wish for your child to get the flu shot, then disregard!
Please call me if you have any questions.
