Dear Parent/Guardian:

As of today, Old Colony has had 5 suspected cases of H1N1 flu over the past week. These cases have not been confirmed. We continue to be in contact with local Health Departments to monitor the situation and will update you via this website. We still do not know when we will schedule a flu clinic – it depends on when we receive the vaccine.

Should you have any questions, please call the school nurse at 508-763-8011, ext. 130. Also, if you suspect that your child has H1N1, please let the school know. Please remember that you must keep your child home for at least 24 hours after the fever has broken without the aid of medication.

Thank you,
Gary Brown
Superintendent-Director
