Student Health Resources
  • Seguin ISD is committed to the health and safety of all students and staff.  As October 1 st is the traditional start to the flu season, Seguin ISD encourages our school community to take these steps to help minimize the spread of the flu. Stay Informed -Visit the Department of State Health Services site for flu information in Texas at www.TexasFlu.org Get Vaccinated -Get a flu vaccination now.  It’s the best way to protect yourself and others. Stop the Spread - Wash your hands frequently with soap and water or use hand sanitizer.  Cover your coughs and sneezes.  Stay home if you’re sick.  Have a plan to care for sick family members at home. Influenza (flu) is a contagious respiratory illness caused by the influenza virus.  It can cause mild to severe illness. Some people, such as older people, young children, and people with certain health conditions, are at high risk for serious flu complications. The best way to prevent the flu is by getting vaccinated each year. The 2014-15 seasonal flu vaccine is available throughout Texas. DSHS encourages everyone 6 months or older to get vaccinated yearly to protect yourself and others from the flu. For more information about the 2014-2015 Flu Season visit the CDC website at- http://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/season/index.htm

  • Recent media reports on the coronavirus in the United States have raised questions and caused concern. I want to assure you that Seguin ISD is actively monitoring this situation through proven and trustworthy sources: the Region 8 health departments, the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). These health officials believe the risk to our school community is low at this time. Updated information from the CDC on coronavirus in the United States can be found at: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html(opens external link in new window). The most recent information about coronavirus in Texas may be found at: https://dshs.texas.gov/coronavirus/(opens external link in new window). Based on the current information, health officials are recommending that local communities and schools take the same steps to protect against coronavirus as we take to prevent the spread of everyday illnesses like the common cold or the flu:

     

    • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

    • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

    • Avoid close contact with people who are sick. • Stay home when you are sick.

    • Cover your mouth and nose with the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze.

    • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

     

    Our teachers, school nurses, and staff are working carefully to encourage the simple preventative measures listed above. This is important not just to help prevent the spread of coronavirus, but to help prevent the spread of other infections that can lead to student illness and absences. Thank you for your continued support of Seguin ISD.
