District Health Protocol

School District of Marathon
Health Guidelines

Monitoring:

The District will continue to internally monitor active illness outbreak cases as we monitor all
other illnesses for our students and staff.

• fever-free for at least 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications such as Tylenol

• no diarrhea or vomiting for at least 24 hours without the use of medications (like Immodium

• other symptoms are greatly improving.

If a parent does call to let us know their student has tested positive with a contagious illness, we
ask that you follow the guidance of their local health department or primary care provider as
far as isolation and returning to school.
