I’m so aggravated

My child has had lice several times, each time I have caught it quickly and efficiently treated it. My child knows I have strict rules when it comes to preventing lice: she is not allowed to share hats, clothes backpacks, no hugging classmates, and no absolutely no touching another child’s hair. Now i do not at all care if this is too strict so don’t bother with giving your opinion on my rules.

However I just discovered her new school has all the kids in the class put their backpacks together before first bell. Furthermore they do not have a policy to inform parents of outbreaks, in fact it’s against their policy! My child has already gotten lice in the three weeks she was there. I’m livid. I plan to get her a plastic backpack for next year. What else can I do that will not have me constantly spending money on lice preventatives. She doesn’t want her hair greased back because she doesn’t like the feeling. Lice is expensive and every time my other daughter gets it as well.
