Summary:
|
|
The updated policy reflects STATE GUIDANCE from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) on head lice prevention and control in schools. Following CDPH guidance, the policy..
1) deletes routine screening by schools and the school’s responsibility to check siblings of infected students,
2) adds provision of information to parents/guardians to encourage at-home screening and inspection,
3) allows students found with active head lice to stay in school until the end of the school day, and
4) gives discretion to the principal or designee to determine whether to send notification and information to parents/guardians when students in a class or school are found infested with head lice. |
