Rockville Public Schools

Rockville schools have a “no nit” policy in place. Students with an active case of nits will be sent home to be treated.

“Children with head lice will be sent home for treatment. When your child returns to school, you must bring him/her to the health room for inspection. All lice and/or nits within 1/2 inch of the scalp must be removed before your child may return to the classroom.” Source: Westbrook Elementary School
