Following the news of an NWACC student who died Sunday after contracting the deadly virus, the district posted a fact sheet that helps identify the symptoms of meningitis to their Facebook page.

They are also urging parents to contact a physician or their county health department if they see these symptoms in a student.

Symptoms of meningitis include fever, intense headache, irritability or listlessness, vomiting and rash.
