Case: Bed bugs
I have a student who has a bed bug problem at home. I have seen several of them in the classroom recently and I have alerted the office as well as the head plant operator. How should I approach the student and their family? Should I have the school counselor speak to them instead?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
There is nothing wrong with speaking to the parents directly, because it is an issue that needs to be taken care of at home as well. This is something that can effect all of the kids so it does not need to spread. It has to be taken care of immediately. This is similar to lice. IF lice is not treated immediately more children are affected. |

Comments: This is a genuine issue that needs to be resolved as soon as physically possible. You should not be concerned with whether or not it's a good idea to contact the parent and make sure they definitely know about the problem.
Be aware that there is a chance this will go south. If the student has been like this for a few days then it's a good guess that the parents probably know about this already. They may take the defensive. Remember, though, you NEED to treat the issue at hand first. |

| Comments: There is no sugarcoating this topic. As someone that has lived this life before, I know first hand how quickly these can spread. This does have to be addressed just like lice. When I worked in a daycare we had this problem and we had to get a letter from an exterminator saying they were clear before they can return. I know parents have to work, but a bedbug infestation can literally close down a school. |

| Comments: As much as I agree with your solution, I work in the school system and my elementary school has a strict plan in place where we are not allowed to tell the parents if we think their child has lice. Even the clinic assistant has strict policies of what to say or not. I would first and foremost check with Admin and the school nurse before pursing other avenues. |
