lice.

Today started a day unlike any other.

don't get too excited on the juicy details. i don't have lice.

BUT we started our day in school today by putting every students belongings in a trash bag to be hung on their hooks. and we will begin every day this will until may 7.

there has been no break out of lice yet....in my classroom. but there will be (so i hear). its quite the problem here. when i was in elementary school we had everyone checked and went through the steps to ensure everyone was lice free.. here, everyone bags their items. and prepares for the lice ahead of them. which apparently is quite the load. i have heard i will "see them jumping." the kids wear fur. its part of life here. and the lice will live in that fur. and jump from fur to fur.

intense.
