Today we had a case of lice reported to the school. It was caught early but I wanted to inform you of this so that you can check your children’s hair when they get home. I also wanted to provide you with some tips that can help us prevent an outbreak of lice. The first thing we can do is place backpacks into a garbage bag that is tied tightly over the weekend. There are also essential oils that help repel lice. These include tea tree oil, lemongrass, eucalyptus, and rosemary. Finally, if your child has long hair, they can wear it in braids or a ponytail.
