Flu forces Milwaukee Catholic school to close for rest of week

The flu has spread to so many children at Mother of Good Counsel School in Milwaukee that administrators have closed school for the rest of the week.

In a letter to parents, Principal Regina Shaw said 22 percent of students were out sick Monday, by Tuesday that number had grown to 33 percent of students out sick.

Shaw said "for us to have 64 sick children, in addition to several faculty/staff members, makes it very difficult for us to carry on with the business of school."
