Nurses Notes
Lice Information
Attention parents/guardians. We are seeing head lice at several different grade levels within the school. Please help us out by checking your student's hair, and doing the appropriate treatment measures if lice or nits are found. The video link is from the American Academy of Dermatology. It is a YouTube video that provides direction/instruction on how to assess and treat lice.
Some of the biggest takeaways*
Only use ONE product at a time
Don't wash your hair for 2 days after applying the lice shampoo
Vacuuming furniture, beds, carpet, vehicle upholstery. Throw the vacuum bag away in the outside trash or empty the vacuum canister outside in the trash and clean particles out of the canister.
We thank you for providing assistance with this matter.

If you choose to not have your child vaccinated, an exemption form needs to be filled out and turned in as soon as possible. For those needing immunizations, appointments are available Monday-Friday from 8am-4pm at the Knox County Community Health Center, 11660 Upper Gilchrist Rd., Mount Vernon OH 43050

Supporting our Freddies
Our priority is to ensure the safety and well-being of our students. We encourage everyone to actively participate in creating a nurturing environment that promotes open communication, empathy, and understanding. If you know a student who may need support, or if you have any concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our social workers or school counselors. Working together, we can make a profound difference in the lives of our students.
