This is a stressful and at times embarrassing discovery. Parents can be extremely stressed by the task of treating at times multiple siblings and their home environment before the children can return to school. If the family is also facing financial difficulties this burden can be overwhelming. At times there is a delay in the children returning to school until the proper supplies can be purchased. Because of your generous donation, we can alleviate this challenge! Families who can not afford to purchase lice treatment, will be given supplies to treat their children at home. This means children can return to school the next day after treatment! It is so important to keep these kids in school and learning, and because of you, we can help make this happen!","fullyFundedDate":1745351482160,"projectUrl":"project/lice-treatment/9256482/","projectTitle":"Lice Treatment","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Furlong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7007448"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_120990","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":77,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":29,"percentWhite":24,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":37,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Weighted Average","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":66.9,"schoolId":120990,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about C.A.
