This brochure lists the illnesses for which a child must be kept out of school or childcare. It tells you if your child needs a doctor’s note or medical treatment to come back to school or childcare after certain illnesses. If you have any questions about the School and Childcare Exclusion List, please contact your child’s school, childcare or your local health department. DHEC has also posted the School and Childcare Exclusion List on the web at the following address: 

En este folleto, se mencionan las enfermedades por las que un niño debe excluirse de la escuela o el centro de cuidado infantil. También se informa si su hijo necesitará una nota del proveedor de atención médica o un tratamiento médico para regresar a la escuela o el centro de cuidado infantil después de contraer ciertas enfermedades. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre la Lista de Exclusión para Escuelas y Centros de Cuidado Infantil, contáctese con la escuela o el centro de cuidado infantil de su hijo, o con el departamento de salud local. El Departamento de Salud y Control Ambiental (Department of Health and Environmental Control, DHEC) también publicó la Lista de Exclusión para Escuelas y Centros de Cuidado Infantil en su sitio web, en la siguiente dirección:

Educators at the S.C. Department of Education has developed remote learning resources that can be used by teachers across all grade levels.

The links and resources included were both developed internally by the Office of Standards and Learning and vetted from outside sources for use by school districts as instructional resources. Resources will continue to be added as they are developed and vetted. 

There are resources for K-12 math.  Great Minds is the publisher of our Eureka math materials.

Parents struggling to find ways to educate their kids and keep them occupied while school is out due to the COVID-19 outbreak can look
forward to some quick educational videos about blizzards, rain, tornadoes, and more. Starting this week, Chris Justus, a Greenville, South Carolina meteorologist for WYFF will teach kids about weather and answer their questions on Facebook.

Justus, who shared he first became interested in meteorology when he was in the third grade when he was growing up on an apple farm, said on Facebook that each day he "will post a quick educational video geared toward teaching kids about weather." He asked parents and caregivers to let him know what you'd like to learn. For example, on Day #1 of Weather School with Justus, the chief meteorologist taught about different types of precipitation and how they form.
