It is a good habit to check your children regularly for lice. Watch for frequent scratching of the head, brown or white eggs (nits) on the hair shaft that may look like dandruff but are not easily brushed away. Per GPISD handbook, students with live lice or signs of active infestation will be excluded from school. If head lice are found, the hair must be treated before the child returns to school on the following day. Upon return to school, the student and parent/guardian must report directly to the school nurse, provide information about the treatment utilized, and have the student’s hair checked before reporting to class. Chronic cases and instances of non-treatment will result in unexcused absences.
