Welcome to Mrs. Cooley's Corner
Some general health reminders:
- Wash your hands often at home and school so you don't pass along or pick up any "bugs" that could make you sick
- Cover your coughs - no one wants to get your cold
- Drink lots of water during the school day
- Get lots of rest so you can learn and play at school
Students need to remain home resting if they have:
- Vomited in the last 24 hours
- Had diarrhea in the last 24 hours
- Had a fever in the last 24 hours (without medication)
- Started antibiotics (including antibiotic eye drops) in the last 24 hours
- Have a continuous, uncontrollable cough (if it seems unusual check with medical provider)
- Have unexplained, suspicious rashes (until seen by medical provider)
Please notify the health office if your student has been diagnosed with a contagious disease - so we can help keep the Beekman community safe
If your child becomes ill at school, we will contact a parent or guardian.
Please help us reach you by keeping contact information up to date.
