If a student in your child's classroom has head lice, you will receive a letter to notify you and to request that you check your child's head at home.
Head lice occurs in all socio-economic groups and in the cleanest of homes.
People are infested with head lice by coming into direct contact with someone who has lice or indirectly by contact with infested personal belongings such as clothing, hats, combs, or brushes. We understand this and make every effort to protect your child from needless embarrassment. This form can be obtained in the office. If you prefer not to have your child immunized, your signature is needed on an exemption statement which is available in the office. Immunization clinics are held at the Southeastern District Health Department on Memorial Drive.
