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

LiceDoctors understands how frustrating it can be when your child is not readmitted to school due to head lice. We will send a technician to your home and we guarantee that your child will be clear and ready to attend school the next day. Give us a call in the Rockville area at 240-720-7491 ; and we will come to you at your convenience day or night.

We provide a friendly in-home lice removal service
