Students found to have nits less than 1/4 inch from the scalp or live lice will be excluded from school. They will be readmitted when:
One medicated shampoo or lotion treatment has been given and documentation indicating type of treatment is provided to the school nurse.
Nits within 1/4 inch of scalp have been removed.
The school nuse finds no evidence of nits within 1/4 inch of the scalp and no lice.
The school nurse must check the student before retuning to class. (If the nurse finds live lice still in evidence, the student will be excluded.)
