  • Fever or chills
  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
  • Fatigue
  • Muscle or body aches
  • Headache
  • New loss of taste or smell
  • Sore throat
  • Congestion or runny nose
  • Nausea or vomiting

Please keep children home if they are sick.  If you have questions or concerns, contact your child’s doctor.

Thank you, PTA, for celebrating the Keene Mill staff during Teacher Appreciation Week!  We all enjoyed all the treats you provided.
