Nebraska is experiencing a significant increase in pertussis cases (also known as whooping cough)
Pertussis is spread by contact with respiratory droplets. Preventative measures include:
Hand hygiene
Cough/respiratory etiquette
Disinfection of desks and shared surfaces
We encourage families and staff to be up to date on vaccinations; this is especially important for pregnant people, as babies less than 6 months old are at risk for severe disease and are too young to be fully vaccinated, so rely on their parents antibodies for passive immunity.
Here is the link to more information on Pertussis.

We encourage you to talk with your child about the significance of this week and reinforce the message of staying drug-free at home. Together, we can create a supportive environment that fosters healthy habits.
Thank you for your continued partnership in our efforts to guide our children toward a brighter, healthier future!
