Ed, this is a “lice alert.” Robbinsville and Hamilton Square have lice spreading. It’s the beginning of the school year and time for that precious haircut. So I hope the hairdressers are on the lookout as well as the public and the private schools. Parents, please check your child’s hair for the little white spots on the hair that look like dandruff but don’t shake off, or the little moving sesame seed-looking creatures. If your family has lice, please tell the people with whom you had contact. It’s so important.

Lice Meister

Oh, come on! What’s a few lice between friends and classmates. Aren’t we supposed to encouraging our kids to share?
