Yes, because HIV is transmitted by blood to blood contact, if your child gets a cut and opens a door with a bloody hand or something and someone else's child comes along with say a paper cut and opens that same door, the blood from your child might git into the other child's cut and infect that child. It's just precautionary they shouldn't make to big of a fuss about the whole thing, they'll just look after your child better while he/she is at school.

* On the contrary to the above you most only tell if there are laws mandating it in the area you live in. If there aren't it comes more to a matter of the age of the child; A high schooler could probably keep those around them safe, but a 5 year old would need extra care. Another thing to think about is any medication that would be taken during the school day.
