Medical symptoms requiring removal of child from day care

CLA recognizes a fever as a temperature of 100 F or higher, as taken from under the arm. A child must be fever-free for a minimum of 24 hours before returning to daycare. We request that temperature is naturally below 100 F and is not affected or reduced with the aid of any fever-reducers.

A Child will also not be permitted if the following symptoms are present:

• Sore throat, rash, vomiting, earachem, diarrhea- runny, watery, and/or bloody/ loose stools within the last 4 hours.
• Breathing trouble, sore throat, swollen glands, loss of voice, hacking or continuous coughing
• Runny nose draining eyes or ears.
• Lice, rash, or any other spots that resemble childhood disease including ringworm.
