Lost and Found
Lousy Lice
Head lice can happen to any child. It is passed from person to person by direct contact. They can move quickly but do not fly or jump. It is a good practice to check your child’s hair frequently for nits (eggs) and lice. Unlike dandruff flakes, nits (eggs), are smaller than a mustard seed and stick to the shaft of the hair, Nits are usually found within an inch of the scalp and are clear, grey or white. Louse (lice) are about the size of a sesame seed and brownish in color. Teach your child to not share hats, coats, backpacks, combs or brushes. If you suspect head lice on your child, you can consult your physician or the school nurse for confirmation of head lice and/or treatment.
