Lice Guidelines

• No child should miss valuable school time because of lice or nits.

• If a student is found to have live lice or nits in their hair, the parent/guardian will be notified and treatment will be recommended.

• Students with recent lice or nits may be rechecked by the school nurse 7-10 days after recommended prompt treatment.

All parents are encouraged to regularly check their children for lice and nits. If a parent needs information on prevention, identification and elimination of lice or nits, please contact your school's health office.
