Since I’m unwilling to pay for an office visit for a kid with an obviously self-limiting illness, my solution would be to send my kid to school sick and let them send her back home. Or, if she was sick enough that that was impractical, call the school and tell them that that was my plan.

I agree that it’s a standard letter, but people who sent out standardized letters deserve the consequences thereof.
