A few of our classes have had lice cases. In the winter, our hats are close to each other on the coat racks. We also ask that children not wear each other’s hats or scarves, to help minimize the spread. If your child has lice, please let the office know right away. Then, we send a letter home to their classmates so families can do a head check. We have lice treatment kits available at the office if cost is an issue. Thank you!

Earlier this morning, we detected a smell in one of our classrooms. We relocated the class to the library while the classroom aired out and maintenance staff investigated. Maintenance gave the all-clear that the room was fine to re-enter and our day continued as normal. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. Thank you, Ms. Jones
