September is Lice Prevention Month

Keep Your Students Nit and Lice-Free with Routine Screening and Early Detection

Head lice infestations are most common among preschool and elementary school-aged children. The presence of head lice for a student can mean several days of absenteeism and significant undue social stigma around the classroom.

Below are some helpful links for parents and school staff to help prevent the spread of head lice.
