  2. Lice Awareness Week - anybody tried it?

    Hey OldDude. You have such a great way with words. Would you be willing to share some of your info with us that you send home to parents?
  3. Do you notice trends with your student visits?

    This is just me. But, if the teacher is being goofy enough to let the kids play with the animals. I would make the teacher call the parent. To answer your question, yes I do see trends. I think the kids get in a huddle and decide what the "flav...
