What Causes High Fever And Leg Pain In Kids?

just curious if there is some sort of virus going around causing high fevers and leg pain? My 4 year old had to be picked up today from school due to a very quick onset of a high fever. She s lathargic but says she feels fine, just that her legs hurt. Just curious if there is something more common going around right now.
