DD 14 and constant colds. Help!

DD is 14. She seems to be a beacon for colds and viruses at this time of the year.
She had a horrendous one the week before last and had 3.5 days off school. Sore throat, hacking cough and zero energy.
I had a letter from her school, saying her attendance is being "monitored".
Last night she's coming down with something else. Sore throat again, body aches and pains etc.
I understand why the school would be concerned, but what's the solution? Send her in full of cold, spreading it, and not getting better and being more open to the other viruses?
Anyone have any advice?
