Pacifica School District Nit Policy

A petition of the families of Vallemar, Ocean Shore, Cabrillo,

Ortega, Sunset Ridge and Ingrid B. Lacy Schools,

PSD Employees & Interested Community Members

Addressed to the Pacifica School District Board

We the undersigned would like to bring your attention to the following problem, with recommendation(s):

The Pacifica community members named herein overwhelmingly agree that the current Head Lice Policy should not be amended or nullified.   We the undersigned, by signing this petition, are requesting of the Pacifica School District Board of Directors: Mike O’Neill; Eileen Manning-Villar; Cynthia Kaufman; Joan Weideman; and Karen Ervin to consider the ramifications of such a decision that overrules the majority opinion shared by Teachers, Staff, Administrators, Parents and Community Members and to vote AGAINST ANY CHANGES to the current no-nit policy.   It is the collective mission of the above named persons to support the Educational Community through funding; academic development; and community activism.  Any decisions by the PSD Board of Directors that defy the common interests of this population may have a negative impact on Pacifica schools and the community it serves.  Therefore, we are requesting via petition a “no” vote on any change/s to the existing HEAD LICE policy.  Should the Pacifica School Board choose to amend the policy, this petition shall also serve to appeal such a ruling through the San Mateo County Board of Education.   

Agreed upon by the following people:
