Lice
The Health Services Department at Fabens ISD understands the concerns that parents have in dealing with a case of lice. It is our mission to ensure that NO child's privacy rights and rights to education are violated. There are no laws in Texas addressing the exclusion of children with lice from school. Lice are not a public health threat and the Department of State Health Services does not monitor or track cases, as they do not carry disease. Fabens ISD follows the Department of State Health Services Guidelines for lice in schools.
