Parents and guardians of students in the South Huntington School District were notified by letter yesterday (Thursday) that a student at Stimson Middle School in Huntington Station has been hospitalized with a suspected case of bacterial meningitis, school officials said.

The letter also said the infected student has siblings in Walt Whitman High School and Birchwood Intermediate School. The district also alerted parents and guardians of students who were absent from school yesterday through an automated phone system that leaves a message.
