Another mother, who chose not to be identified, told the outlet her daughter was unwell that Thursday and agreed to keep her home Friday after she threw up "five or six times overnight."
The parent speculated contaminated cafeteria food the children consumed on Thursday may have been the source.
The school district notified parents that they are investigating the incident but failed to provide any additional details, 8 News Now reported.

Nearly a week after the incident, the school has still not notified the parents about what may have caused the incident.
"I don’t know if they have all the information present as to what happened, but I wish that we did have more constant updates as to what’s going on," the unidentified mother said. "At the end of the day, we don’t know what’s going on. We don’t know how to help them. I mean, if kids are a priority, then we need to know what’s going on, so we can help our children."
The letter was signed by the school’s principal, Mr. Davis.
