[quote=Anonymous]You answered your own question. The policy is not to send students home or keep them home due to lice. Further compounding the problem is that many schools, especially charter schools, lack a nurse or someone else qualified to do a “head check” to try to identify lice cases in a systematic way. So students must rely on caregivers to check their heads, keep them home and test them. And most caregivers won’t do what it takes (it takes time and money for bad cases) or even become aware of the lice infestation until it’s pretty rampant and had already had the chance to spread.
