Not everyone will get the flu. School and health officials are being especially careful to make sure as few
people as possible get sick.
• Receiving the H1N1 vaccination is not unlike receiving other vaccinations needed to attend school.
• There are things we can do to stay healthy and avoid spreading disease, such as washing our hands,
covering our mouths with a tissue when we sneeze or cough and throwing out the tissue immediately, and
staying home when we don’t feel well.
• Adults at home and school are taking care of your health and safety. If you have concerns, please talk to
an adult you trust.
• It is important that all students treat each other with respect and not jump to conclusions about who may or
may not have the flu.
