School Lice Policies

Schools in Gresham, Oregon adhere to recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) and do not have a “no nit” school” lice policy.

School districts can vary widely in how they approach the management of head lice.

Most school districts set the district-wide policies for head lice and parents should always check with their child’s school for their particular policies.
