Preventative Health Tips for the Fall!


The Fall season is upon us and now that everyone is back in school and and returning to classes at Adage, we'd like to ask all families to take preventative health cautions.  Some of the most common illness and cases that we see include the following:
  • Lice
  • Flu
  • Common Cold
  • Allergies/Asthma 
We strongly recommend a seasonal check-up with your family physician before your dancer catches "what's going around" at school; at least one parent has alerted us that a case of lice has been reported at their children's school.  As a preventative measure, please check your children for lice and treat accordingly if found.  For more information about treating lice, please visit: http://children.webmd.com/tc/lice-topic-overview .

We also ask that families remind their children to practice smart health habits like consistent hand-washing, vitamin-enriched food and snacks, and properly covering mouth and nose when sneezing.
