School Lice Policies

Schools in Surprise, Arizona adhere to a stringent “no nit” school head lice policy.

This district allows students to attend school after treatment for nits, but not with live lice. This represents a change from the prior “no nit” which forbade students with lice eggs from entering school.

Hillsboro schools have a "No Live Lice Policy", meaning children will not be excluded from school solely because of the presence of nits or eggs.
