Spreading Flu in Classrooms

The flu season is only getting worse and that includes spreading in kids’ classrooms. Both school and health officials say it is extremely important parents notice flu symptoms. This season is on track to be one of the worst. The flu is widespread in almost every state and experts say the number of child flu deaths is up. That’s that ’24-hour symptom free’ we ask parents to abide by,” said Scott Dearman, Dunlap Superintendent. He says while teachers frequently wash hard surfaces in the classroom, the district also has a Clorox 360 machine.
