There have been numerous cases of lice in the school.  Please remember to check your child’s head every day for lice and nits.  It is recommended that you check your child for at least 14 days after you receive a note about a case of lice in your child’s class.  A new note will be sent home in your child’s bag each time a new case of lice is found in a classmate.  Also, please let the school know if your child has lice to help prevent the spread to others.  Here is a link about searching for and removing lice:

There are also companies and people that can be hired to help remove nits and lice from your child and house.
