We have recently received several questions regarding our current practices for responding to and preventing head lice within our school. We understand that finding out about a lice case can be stressful for families, and we want to provide clarity on the evidence-based protocols we follow.

Head lice are a common problem, especially among school-aged children and their families. Lice can attach to the hair of anyone’s head. Though lice are a nuisance, they don’t cause serious illness or spread disease. But, they do require specific attention when an infestation occurs.

Our first after-school STEM club was a huge success! This session’s theme was “LEGO Masters,” and students had an incredible time exploring creativity, engineering, teamwork, and design through hand-on LEGO STEM challenges.

A special highlight of the club was a visit from Barrington alum and mechanical engineer Luke Horwath, who many may recognize from Season 5 of LEGO Masters, where he competed as part of a mother-son team. Luke shared insights about engineering, creativity, collaboration, and his experience on the show, inspiring students to think like designers and innovators.

We are so grateful to Luke for taking the time to connect with our students and help make our first STEM Club experience such a memorable one!
