uncleanliness, and are not responsible for the spread of any disease The District is committed to maximizing student’s academic performance and well-being in a healthy and safe environment The management of pediculosis (head lice) should not disrupt the educational process Board Policy 5141.33 was reviewed and recommended revisions were made

Trang 21

Students BP 5141.33(a)

HEAD LICE

The Board of Trustees recognizes that head lice infestations among students require treatment but do not pose a risk of transmitting disease The Superintendent or designee shall encourage early detection and treatment in a manner that minimizes disruption to the educational program and reduces student absences

The Superintendent or designee may distribute information to parents/guardians of preschool and elementary students regarding routine screening, symptoms, accurate diagnosis, and proper treatment of head lice infestations The Superintendent or designee also may provide related information to school staff

(cf 4131 - Staff Development)

(cf 4231 - Staff Development)

By following evidence-based recommendations of state and national health organizations, the policies and practices of the district will reduce embarrassment for students, anxiety for parents and school staff, and will prevent unnecessary absences and the potential negative effects on academic performance

School employees shall report all suspected cases of head lice to the school nurse or designee

as soon as possible School staff shall examine the student and any siblings of affected students

or members of the same household

If a student is found with active, adult head lice, he/she shall be allowed to stay in school until the end of the school day The parent/guardian of any such student shall be given information about the treatment of head lice and encouraged to begin treatment of the student immediately and to check all members of the family The parent/guardian also shall be informed that the student shall be checked upon return to school the next day and allowed to remain in school if

no active head lice are detected

Upon the student's return to school, the school nurse or designee shall check the student for active head lice If it is determined that the student remains infected with head lice, the school nurse or designee shall contact the student's parent/guardian to discuss treatment As needed, he/she may provide additional resources and/or referral to the local health department, health care providers, or other agencies

(cf 5141.3 - Health Examinations)

(cf 5141.6 - School Health Services)

If a student is found consistently infested with head lice, he/she may be referred to a multidisciplinary team, which may consist of the school nurse, representatives from the local health department and social services, and other appropriate individuals, to determine the best approach for identifying and resolving problems contributing to the student's head lice infestations

(cf 1020 - Youth Services)

(cf 5113 - Absences and Excuses)

BP 5141.33(b)

HEAD LICE (continued)

The Board of Trustees recognizes that responsibility for the treatment of head lice rests with the home The Superintendent or designee shall send home the notification (written letter) required

by law for excluded students The absence shall be treated in the same manner as an excused absence due to a medical problem for a maximum of two days

When it is determined that one or more students in a class or school are infested with head lice, the principal or designee may, at his/her discretion, notify parents/guardians of students in that class or school and provide them with information about the detection and treatment of head lice

Staff shall maintain the privacy of students identified as having head lice
