FAQ – Sick policy

Sick Policy

Please do not bring your child to school when he/she is ill.

Acorn places a strong emphasis on maintaining the health and well-being of our students.  We ask  parents to call the front office before bringing a child to school if they are unsure if their child is health enough to attend.  (303) 938-8233.

Please also reference the How Sick is Too Sick Document created by CDPHE

All symptoms of illness should be resolved for 24 hours without the use of medication prior to returning to school.

Keeping Children Healthy

Teaching handwashing and promoting good hygiene practices are essential components of promoting health and preventing the spread of infections among students. The Acorn School adheres to all Health Department regulations to ensuring a high standard of health and safety.

We use HEPA air filters throughout the school as an additional measure to reduce the spread of airborne illness. HEPA filters are effective in capturing small particles, including airborne contaminants, which can be especially important for indoor air quality.

By combining these measures, Acorn is actively working to create a health-conscious and safe environment for its students. This approach not only supports the immediate well-being of the children but also contributes to fostering a positive and conducive learning environment within the school community.
