Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I have a 4 year old child that attends school. A letter was sent home with her on Wendsday September 23rd 2014. The letter states that Nits and head lice has become a common nuisance in SEVERAL children in the JSK1 class. On September the 24th I was called out of my place of employment to pick up my child that she was infected with head lice. I rushed to the school when I attened the school office their where several children waiting to be picked up for the same reason I was there. I had talked to other concerned parents as we were leaving with our children there were questions and concerns we all had. I took it in myself to make a call to the Health Unit that phone number was provided to us on the letter that was sent home to us when I called they said the school should not be putting our number you half to call 311 I did that!! 311 gave me the Greater Essex board of eduction phone number I spoke to them witch was NO HELP at all. I have treated my child's hair and returned her back to school where a local teacher of the school over looked my child's hair and said she can return back to her class my child was very happy to be able to attend school. The same teacher that over looked my child head with her fingers had came to the classroom when I brought my child to class and said to the teachers What other child did u want me to check and they pointed at a little girl and that teacher removed her from the room. I the concerned parent had went and talked to the principal and asked what are you doing as a school to have this checked I have now treated and spent $$ and 6 hours on my child head just to bring her back to school to find out there are still children that are infected and that she could be infected again and again till this matter is cleared up. I had called back the board that morning and was talked to very rude and said that the school has called Com Care in but the only opening they had to come in was OCTOBER 4th now the board does not pay for this services the school itself has to pay for it the principal had said to me that the school has Com Care comes into the school 4 times out of the year and they will call them in after THANKSGIVING I said no they should be called now with this INFESTATION she said if that will make you happy I will call them in before thanksgiving if they have an available date. I am not a happy parent @ this time with the PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD.
