Health Notice: Be aware of signs and symptoms of Measles
With the recent notice of Measles cases being reported in North Dakota we encourage families to review their children's vaccination records and stay alert for symptoms. If your child is feeling unwell, please keep them home and contact your healthcare provider. Stay up to date on this topic on the ND Health & Human Services website. Thank you for helping us keep our school community healthy.

Symptoms include:

  • High fever

  • Cough

  • Cold-like symptoms

  • Pink eye

  • White spots inside mouth (Koplik spots)

  • Red rash that starts on forehead and spreads down body

Nearly everyone with measles will experience the fever and rash. A person is contagious from four days before the beginning of the rash until four days after the beginning of the rash. Their symptoms may persist after this period but they would no longer be considered contagious.
