HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) -

Westminster Christian Academy's Brockway campus will have an abbreviated day on Thursday and will be closed on Friday.

This is because of a large number of flu cases at the school.

Students will go home Thursday at 11:45 a.m., and the Brockway campus will stay closed on Friday.

According to the CDC, the flu activity is already pretty high in Alabama.

Health officials predict this could be a bad flu year.

They recommend everyone six months and older to get a flu shot.

They also say to make sure you cover your cough, wash your hands frequently, and stay home when you're sick.
