  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!)
I would speak to the parents, calling and setting up a conference because this is a sensitive topic and talking about it on the phone can be taken the wrong way. Then I'd talk to administration again because this student can pass the bed bugs around to the other students in the classroom.
