    All students benefit from a healthy classroom environment and are most successful when rested and feeling good. Beginning the day with a healthy breakfast and a good night's sleep is very important for a child to have a successful school day.  Please refer to the following guidelines to determine if your child's needs would be best met by coming to school or staying home. Thank you for your assistance. (Also see OUSD Health and Safety Guidelines)
