🧠 Head Lice Awareness 🪮

Head lice are very common among children and can happen to anyone—regardless of cleanliness or hygiene. Lice do NOT jump or fly, and they are most commonly spread through direct head-to-head contact.

Let’s work together to reduce shame and stigma by responding with kindness, education, and support instead of embarrassment or blame. ❤️

Helpful reminders:
✔️ Anyone can get lice
✔️ Having lice does NOT mean someone is dirty
✔️ Lice do not spread disease
✔️ Early detection and treatment help reduce spread

🪮 Tips & Tricks to Help Eliminate Lice:
• Use an approved lice treatment exactly as directed
• Comb hair daily with a fine-tooth nit comb to remove eggs (nits)
• Wash bedding, hats, jackets, and recently worn clothing in HOT water and dry on high heat
• Soak brushes and combs in hot water for 5–10 minutes
• Vacuum furniture, car seats, carpets, and pillows
• Items that cannot be washed can be sealed in a plastic bag for 2 weeks
• Check all household members if one person has lice
• Continue checking hair for several days after treatment

Tips to help prevent lice:
• Avoid sharing hats, brushes, headphones, and hair accessories
• Encourage children to avoid head-to-head contact during play
• Keep long hair tied back during school or activities

May is Mental Health Awareness Month — a time to recognize that mental health is just as important as physical health. Every student deserves support, encouragement, and access to care when they need it most. 💚

Our School-Based Health Clinics are here to help students navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, and everyday challenges in a safe and supportive environment.

At Tahquamenon Area Schools, mental health services are available through The CAMP School-Based Health Clinic.
At St. Ignace Area Schools, students can access services through the SAINTS Office School-Based Health Clinic.

Services may include:
• Individual counseling
• Mental health screenings
• Coping and stress management support
• Referrals and care coordination
• A trusted place to talk

Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. By supporting mental wellness early, we help students build resilience, confidence, and healthier futures.

If you believe your child could benefit from mental health support, contact your school-based health clinic to learn more about available services and enrollment options.
