Hello ACS Parents,
Late Friday afternoon we discovered that one of our older students has head lice. Please check your child’s hair, especially behind the ears and at the base of the hair in the back of the head. The following web sites can help you understand this problem and what to look for: www.ridlice.com or http//kidshealth.org. We will check every child on Monday morning to be on the safe side. Head lice are contagious. Should you discover that your child has lice, let the office know. RID, an over-the-counter medicated shampoo sold at WalMart has been recommended by Dr. Allcorn to treat students that have lice. As with any other contagious sickness at our school we will handle the problem with care, caution, and prayer.
Yours In Christ,
Mrs. Young
