What parents should know about illness at Evergreen Academy Middle School

Parents here log the illnesses their kids actually come home with, so other families can see what is going around before the school sends a notice.

No parent has logged an illness at Evergreen Academy Middle School in the last 14 days. Quiet stretches are normal, especially outside the winter respiratory season, and they can also mean no one at this school has started logging yet.

What spreads fastest in middle school

Students at Evergreen Academy Middle School change classrooms each period and mix across grades, so illness tends to spread wide and fast rather than staying in one room. Sports teams and shared locker rooms add a second path that classroom seating charts do not explain.

  • Flu, COVID-19, and mycoplasma (walking pneumonia) spread across the whole grade level
  • Strep throat still circulates and often looks like a bad cold at this age
  • Skin infections like ringworm and impetigo follow contact sports and shared gear
  • Fatigue and headache are often the first reported symptoms, not fever
Back to school

When can my child go back to Evergreen Academy Middle School?

Every school sets its own sick policy, so check yours first. These are the rules of thumb most schools and daycares follow:

  • Fever-free for a full 24 hours without fever medicine before returning
  • No vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hours, and eating normally again
  • On antibiotics for at least 12 to 24 hours for strep throat or impetigo
  • Eye discharge cleared, or cleared by your pediatrician, for pinkeye
  • Well enough to take part in a normal school day, not just well enough to sit through it
