Sunrise Montessori School

H1N1 Information

We are actively monitoring the latest developments regarding the H1N1 flu and making plans to address the situation if we have a significant flu outbreak at Sunrise.  The Napa County of Education (NCOE)  and the California Department of Health have issued guidelines to us that we will follow to help prevent the spread of the flu, including the use of alcohol-based hand sanitizer in the classroom. 

First and foremost, it is imperative that parents keep their children home if they have a fever of 100 degrees plus either a cough or a sore throat until 24 hours after the fever has cleared without the use of fever-reducing medication. 

For further information, please read the Action Steps for Parents issued by the NCOE, and refer to the Center for Disease Control's website.  You can also find information at Napa County's website or call (707) 253-4270.
