Lemoyne, Pa. - The West Shore School District was notified Monday that five cases of the H1N1 influenza, also known as swine flu, have been reported at Lemoyne Middle School, according to a letter sent to parents and a posted on the district's Web site.

The letter, from Superintendent Dr. Jemry Small, states the district is following guidelines provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control. The letter does not indicate if those diagnosed with swine flu are students, staff or teachers.

"Please be assured that we take the health, safety, and wellness of every student and staff member seriously," Dr. Small said in the letter. "We will continue to monitor this situation closely and work with officials at the Pennsylvania Department of Health."

I'm curious.  Just how many times will the local school board shut a school down and sanitize it before they say it's costing too much?  And if they close the school, everytime a kid comes in with a cough or snotty nose, when will the school year end?  Will they continue this ritual cleaning for as long as the flu bug is around?  Like I said, just curious.
