Contact Megan Dennis at megandennis@rogers.com<\/a> to volunteer. In your email, indicate your first and second choice of shifts (don’t forget to state which day).<\/p>\n

Volunteers can report to the office and will be directed to the Lice Check station from there.<\/p>\n

Until the lice check<\/strong>
\nIf your child has lice, or you suspect they do, use one of the over the counter insecticide shampoos (recommended as two treatments about a week apart) and\/or use lice combs daily for two weeks.<\/p>\n

Comb in all directions, as the nits can attach to all sides of the hair shaft and might not be affected by combing straight down.<\/p>\n

Please be vigilant in checking your children and not sending them to school unless they are lice and<\/strong> nit free.<\/p>\n
