TO ALL STUDENTS AND PARENTS REGARDING H1N1 FLU
A Letter from Supt. Collins-October 9, 2009

To All students and parents:

To my knowledge Prague has had no Laboratory confirmed cases of students or staff infected with the H1N1 virus. As of Friday, we have had some students whose medical professionals have indicated it is likely the students have H1N1 due to the symptoms they are exhibiting. Please review information available on H1N1 and act accordingly should your child become ill. Also if you have children or family members that are in any of the high risk categories you need to contact your family health care provider as soon as they start to show symptoms that are common to H1N1.

Our students have had contact with students from area schools that have experienced high numbers of student absences. It is very likely that our youth may have been exposed to whatever is causing these absences. I ask that if your child is absent due to illness that you provide Mary Ann with the symptoms so that we can report to our Area Health center the number of students that have flu-like symptoms. We will continue to be diligent in monitoring student absences and in conducting prevention activities here at school. 

Thank-you.
Ray Collins, Superintendent
