Parents,
Please be aware that lice is ever present in school buildings. Please take the time to check your child’s hair once a week and take care of anything that is found.
To prevent infestation try some of these suggestions.
· Keep boys hair short clean cut
· Keep girls hair pulled up and spray with hair spray.
· Instruct your children to: not share hairbrushes, hats, or hug on friends.
· Lice cannot jump they only crawl. They are quick and spread quickly.
