Failed school lice check? Here’s why schools require clearance
If your school won’t let your child return due to lice, it’s because many districts require a school clearance lice check or written proof of treatment before readmission. Policies vary, but the goal is to prevent re-infestation by removing live lice and nits that can hatch later.
