REMINDERS:
 
The school is still seeing students (especially younger ones) being diagnosed with Influenza A and B. With the school year winding down, it can be hard to determine if the symptoms are due to allergies, sinus problems, or just the wonderful South Dakota weather. If your child is feeling at all ill, complaining of a sore throat or running a fever, please keep them at home. Check out more about symptoms at http://kidshealth.org/parent/infections/lung/flu.html.
