In Minnesota, health officials are predicting that 1.5 million Minnesotans will get the flu this fall and winter. And the school pose a special risk.

Federal health officials have even suggested that schools suspend issuing perfect attendance stars and similar awards to ensure that students stay home when they’re sick.
