The following procedure will be adhered to for students re-entering school after treatment. The child must report directly to the school nurse for a visual inspection. The child will not be re-admitted to school until all nits are removed. Reasonable reassurance must be provided by the parents that they have followed the necessary home decontamination procedures. For the optimal health of the child it is encouraged for parents to provide necessary physical exams, immunizations and dental care.
Parents have the basic responsibility for the health of their children.
The school health program exists to assist parents in carrying out their responsibilities. A written request must be sent to the teacher by the parent on the day before the child is to be excused. Parents must sign the students in and out at the office when tardy or leaving school early. A child will not be called from the classroom until parent arrives. It will not take incoming calls, only outgoing.
