LICE
We thank our Parent Council for paying for our second lice check
of the school year. If you were notified that your child does have lice
we ask that you treat it and rid of all of the lice and any present
eggs. If you are uncomfortable doing this, please call The Lice Crew at 416-781- 4545 and they can do this for you for a fee.
