Here is a nice overview on how to check for lice and what to do if you find lice. If your child has long hair, it is recommended to pull the hair back to help prevent spread. Please also review the attached Mt Horeb School head lice policy and remind your child to not share brushes, hats, clothing or touch heads with other students.
If you notice your child has head lice, please contact their pediatrician for recommended treatment options. Another option is the head lice clinic in Sun Prairie that provides one-time treatments although there is a cost involved. For more generalized information about head lice prevention and treatments, the CDC is a great resource.
