Never heard of that. Elementary students are checked for head lice. As a girl Scout years ago, head lice were never addressed. Ticks were the bigger problem. We rough camped, dug latrines, hauled potable water for a mile and a half, no eiectricity, constantly busy cleaning, cooking, hiking, doing nature studies, getting wood for fires, pitching tents and sometimes repitching when the wind was bad. It was tiring, but well worth it. Every day started and ended with a flag service. As a teacher who respects Scouting, it is hard to convince kids to join because it's too hard or not cool. That's sad. My suburban students can't tell the difference between a cat and a squirrel which are all over the neighborhood. Parents don't let their kids play outside in a very safe neighborhood. Glad I grew up in a rural area in the fifties.
