Lice Checks As A Private School Offering
If you are school admin at a private school, it is important to consider how you can make your offering even more appealing, and we are here to help! Many parents ask us why their child’s private school does not offer lice screenings included in the tuition, and we think it’s a great idea! Here is why your school should offer lice screenings!
Enhanced Health and Safety Offering
By offering quarterly lice screenings, parents will feel you are committed to the health and safety of their children. This helps differentiate you from other schools and could be a huge plus in your column if families are considering multiple options.
Staying Proactive
Aside from the added branding benefits, lice screenings help your school stay proactive. Lice do not discriminate, so private schools get them as often as public schools! By providing a quarterly lice screening at your school you will potentially find a lice outbreak before it gets too out of hand. If lice strikes and it goes unnoticed it could overtake multiple classrooms, costing more money and headaches.
Another great way to stay proactive is to include lice prevention information in mailers and newsletters. Providing workshops for parents can also help prevent outbreaks.
Pro Tip: Don’t let families know when you will conduct these lice checks! Parents will likely keep the child at home if they know they have lice, keeping it a secret, and ultimately causing a bigger problem!
