Illness Prompts Kansas School To Close
Associated Press - Fri 06:10 AM 08/17/2012
Classes canceled Thursday and Friday because of a gastrointestinal illness
A northeastern Kansas elementary school is closed for a second day because of a widespread illness, and the Johnson County Health Department is investigating.
The Shawnee Mission School District canceled classes Thursday and again Friday at Rosehill Elementary because of a gastrointestinal illness that swept through the school.
The health department believes the problem is isolated to Rosehill Elementary. Crews spent Thursday scrubbing the building, and district officials canceled classes Friday to limit the risk of more exposure.
Symptoms include nausea, diarrhea and vomiting. County health officials have sent specimens to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment for further analysis.

Whocares you are a sick individual and you now have crossed the line. Bantering back and forth is one thing but calling someone a child molester is another. Evidently you are a registered sex offender since you seem to know so much about it. I agree with others on here you are a worthless piece of crap and ksal should pull you off here.
