Timely Reminder
With fall and the return of children to school it’s time once again to remind
families of the importance of checking hair and scalp on a routine basis for
Head Lice. The sooner it is found,
the easier it is to control. We have had
one confirmed case so please remind your child of the importance of not sharing
personal items such as hats, combs, hair accessories, etc. Keep in mind that all cases need to be
reported to school.
