B – 037Is it necessary to send all children home and sanitize the center and bus if a child has head lice?
No. This is not a Head Start Performance Standards requirement. Head Start programs should consult with their Health Services Advisory Committee (HSAC) to assist them in developing and implementing program policies on this issue that are in accordance with state and local laws. The HSAC can also assist programs in developing procedures for the daily sanitation of Head Start centers and equipment.
