When to Send Your Child Back to School

As if it weren’t difficult enough to figure out when to keep a child home from school, parents often find it equally hard to tell when it’s time to send their child back to school. Here are a few basic guidelines:

  • Your child no longer exhibits signs of pain or illness.
  • Your child is vomit-, diarrhea- and fever-free for at least 24 hours. (100 F)
  • Your child is sleeping well and appears energetic.
  • If antibiotics have been prescribed, your child needs to be on the medication for at least 24 hours or longer before returning to school. Be sure to follow the doctors’ recommendations for school participation and turn in notes if there are any restrictions on activity.
  • The “runny nose” has diminished to the sniffles, easily controlled with wiping and the mucus is clear.
  • Your child’s cough is infrequent and non-productive.
  • Your child is eating, playing and pretty much back to normal.
