🤒🤧 When Should Your Child Stay Home from School? 🏠📚 We understand that it can be tough to decide if your child should stay home from school. To help, here are some guidelines: Keep Your Child Home If They Have: 🌡️ Fever above 100°F: Must be fever-free for 24 hours without medication before returning. 👄 Sore Throat or Tonsillitis: If diagnosed with Strep Throat, they can return 24 hours after antibiotics begin. 🔴 Rash/Spots: Wait for doctor clearance or 24 hours after treatment for ringworm, scabies, or impetigo (affected area must be covered). 😷 Bad Cough/Cold Symptoms: Keep home until the cough improves and they feel better. 👁️ Eye Discharge (Pink Eye): Return 24 hours after treatment begins and symptoms improve. 🤢 Vomiting/Diarrhea: Wait 24 hours after the last episode without medication before returning. Healthy Tips for Families: ✔️ Avoid saying, "Try to make it and call me if you feel bad." Instead, try: "You’ve been fine for 24 hours, let’s have breakfast, and you’ll feel great at school!" ✔️ Encourage positivity and monitor symptoms carefully. When It’s OK to Attend School: 🌬️ Mild cold symptoms without a fever. 🌼 Allergic conjunctivitis diagnosed by a doctor. 💪 Vague aches, pains, or fatigue. 🩹 Diagnosed non-contagious skin conditions.

Good afternoon Mid-Del families. We have made the decision to allow our student drivers to leave our campuses at 1:50pm today. We will be running our high school bus routes beginning at 2pm, and our middle school routes will begin at 3pm to allow our elementary routes to run at regularly scheduled times. Student walkers will be released at their regularly scheduled times. Please be patient today as routes may be delayed. All evening activities have been canceled. Thank you.

Due to the inclement weather, Mid-Del Schools will have a Remote Learning Day on Friday, January 10, 2025. As you'll remember, we used two inclement weather days in November due to tornadoes. With the majority of winter and all of spring still ahead of us, we don't want to start making decisions now that will force us to alter the academic calendar later when we have a couple of Fridays off scheduled. Please follow the Remote Learning Day Schedules published on our school websites. The Mid-Del Technology Center will be closed. School buildings and offices will be closed.

📢 Important Announcement 📢 All afternoon and evening activities scheduled for Thursday, January 9th, have been canceled. This includes practices, games, meetings, and other school-related events. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Please stay safe, and we will provide updates as needed.
