Sickness in Waukegan schools and daycares right now

If your child came home from school in Waukegan with a fever, a sore throat, or a stomach ache, the first thing most parents want to know is whether it is going around. Ickly tracks 31 schools, daycares, and preschools in Waukegan, and no families have logged anything in the past two weeks. No sick days logged in the past two weeks.

Everything on this page comes from Waukegan parents, not from a health department bulletin that lands weeks after the fact. A family logs a symptom or a confirmed diagnosis, Ickly strips out anything identifying, and the result shows up here grouped by illness and by school. Nothing appears until at least two families report the same thing, so one sick child never puts a school on the map.

Seasonally, August in Illinois tends to bring Hand-Foot-Mouth, Lice, and Pink Eye. Local logs are the better signal, but if the two agree it is usually worth reminding kids about handwashing and keeping an eye out for early symptoms before the weekend.
