ATTENTION: We are still looking for parent volunteers for the Four Winds program, ESPECIALLY for Kindergarten. If you have a child in Kindergarten (or any grade, K-4), and would be interested and able to contribute a few hours of your time each month, this is a wonderful way to participate in the classroom. This year our topic is "Structure and Function". More information can be found at:

A message from the Vermont Department of Health:

It’s flu season, and school is a place where germs are shared generously among students, teachers and school staff. The single best way to protect your entire family against flu is for all people aged six months and older to get an influenza vaccine each year. Young children are among those at higher risk of flu complications. Every year thousands of children younger than age five are hospitalized as a result of flu illness, and while it is rare, some children die from flu each year. A recent study published in the medical journal Pediatrics is the first of its kind to show that flu vaccination significantly reduced a child’s risk of dying from the illness. The study looked at data from four flu seasons between 2010 and 2014, and found that flu vaccination reduced the risk of flu-associated death by nearly two-thirds (65 percent) among healthy children, and by half (51 percent) among children with underlying high-risk medical conditions. Therefore, children, parents and school staff should be vaccinated in the Fall, preferably by the end of October because it takes about two weeks after vaccination for antibodies to develop in the body that protect against flu.

It is especially important for household contacts and caregivers of those with a higher risk for flu-related complications (children <5 years and adults ≥ 50 years) to be vaccinated. In addition to the flu shot, you can encourage the following precautions to help stop the spread of germs:

  • Keep kids home when they’re sick. And try to avoid close contact with people who are sick.  

  • Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue away after use and wash your hands. If a tissue is not available, cover your mouth and nose with your sleeve, not your hands.

  • Wash your hands with soap and water often, especially after you cough or sneeze. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.  

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth. Germs spread this way.

Both children and adults can get vaccinated at their health care providers’ office. Adults can also be vaccinated at public clinics or at pharmacies around the state.
