The health and safety of our students, faculty and staff is of utmost importance to us. Please help us prevent the spread of sickness by following the guidelines set forth in the Student Handbook. 

• Any child that has been vomiting must be kept home for 24 hours from the last incident. 
• If your child has fever, he/she must be fever free without the aid of medication for 24 hours. Please review the guidelines below:

The school reserves the right to exclude any student whose physical condition interferes with the ability to learn or exposes other students to potential communicable disease in accordance with the Arkansas Department of Health. Children Must Be Kept Home From School: 

• if they have a temperature over 100 degrees (temperature should be normal for 24 hours without the aid of medication before returning to school). Confirmed cases of flu require up to 48 hours without fever before the student may return to school.
• if they have had vomiting or diarrhea within 24 hours
• if they have an undiagnosed rash
• if they have a contagious cold with watery nose, glassy eyes, and persistent cough or sneeze if they have weeping or bleeding lesions that cannot be covered or effectively controlled with medication 

On October 1st please show your support to our Conway Christian Band and Choir by coming out to our first Spirit Night at Tacos 4 Life! Between 5 and 9 pm, tell the cashier you're here for the CCS Band/Choir fundraiser and 20% of the money from your meal is donated to our music department.
