Let's Stop Lice at PS 29!! PTA Seminar on Tuesday, December 18th at 8:30 AM



Please join the PS 29 PTA on Tuesday, December 18th immediately following drop off, from 8:30-9:30 AM, in the auditorium for a seminar on preventing, identifying and treating headlice.

Lice Consultant Shayna Brown—The Lady Bug—will be on hand to educate parents on how headlice is spread, how to identify and treat headlice effectively and how to proactively avoid an infestation. (Our focus will be on non-chemical treatments.)


Unfortunately, this year the number of headlice cases at PS 29 has reached unprecedented numbers. Dealing with headlice is physically and emotionally exhausting, time-consuming, and expensive (treatments, laundry, missed work). Let's join together as a community to fight this problem.

If you have not had to deal with headlice before please join us so you are well informed and prepared; if you have already dealt with headlice please join us to make sure you have the best information in hand.

Our goal is a lice-free 2008!!!"
