It is very important for every parent to help prevent the spread of lice.
ALL parents should:
- check your childâs hair at least once a week
- check your childâs hair more often if there is exposure to an actual case of lice from friends, family, or classmates
- check the hair carefully if your child complains of head itching
- remind your child to NEVER share a brush, hat, or helmet
- encourage your child to wear hair up if an active case of lice is identified in the classroom
- notify anyone who has come into close contact with your child should you discover he or she has a case of lice.
Here are the things we are doing at Glen Loch to try and prevent the spread of head lice:
- If a teacher notices a student scratching his or her head excessively, the student will be sent to the clinic for a head check.
- Children will be allowed to keep their backpacks and jackets on the backs of their chairs
- Teachers will continue to constantly look for ways to limit accidental head-to-head contact inside the classroom
