Yes, there are outbreaks of the flu each year in schools across the world in flu season. A type of "Swine Flu", the viral infection (caused by H1N1/09) that was spread all over the world as a pandemic in 2009, was prevalent in schools in all locations, even causing many schools and day care centers around the world to close due to the rapid spreading. Any location such as churches and schools where people were in close contact, or other public locations where coughs, sneezes and many people's hands touching many things to spread the disease on surfaces and shared items, allowed the spread to continue more rapidly and widely. Many schools in different countries were closed due to so many cases in students and teachers spreading rapidly through the school locations with no alternatives to help contain the spread except temporary school closures. See the related question for how the swine flu spread.
