Sick Policy

The Committee on Control of Infectious Diseases of the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that a child should not leave home when any of the following symptoms exist:  

  • Fever
  • Vomiting or diarrhea
  • Any symptoms of childhood diseases such as scarlet fever, measles, mumps, chicken pox, or whooping cough.
  • Common cold—from onset through one week.
  •  Sore throat
  • Croup
  • Any unexplained rash
  • Any skin infections—boils, ringworm or impetigo
  • Pink eye or other eye infections
  • Green or yellow discharge from the nose
  • Any communicable diseases
  • Lice

We ask that these guidelines be followed and that a child be free of fever for 24 hours before coming to church.  Parents will be paged to pick up their child if any of the above symptoms appear during the service hour.  Neither caregivers nor staff of Community Baptist Church are allowed to give any medications to any child at Community Baptist Church.

**Due to severe milk allergies that some children might have,  please DO NOT bring any milk products (cups with milk or formula, crackers, cookies, or any other snacks).  We will provide water and snacks that are healthy and safe for all children in both classes.  Thank you for your support and cooperation with us in this matter!
