5. Bethesda-area schools sent home a lice notice, should we check everyone?Montgomery County Public Schools serving the Bethesda area routinely send home lice notices after a classroom case. Since lice pass easily between kids who share close quarters, it's worth checking the entire family. We can screen and treat everyone in one visit.
