The parent briefing

What parents should know about illness at Lyon Elementary School

This is the community health page for Lyon Elementary School, a school in Glenview, IL. 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 Lyon Elementary 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.

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
