The highest prevalence of infection (85.61%) was observed in HEAD LICE in those whose mother's job and in their STUDENTS whose level of education were elementary (63.04%). There was no correlation between the type of residential home and contamination of the research samples (p=0.71). There was no relation between the STUDENTS' bases (p=0.32) and the existence of a health educator (p=0.9) and father's occupation with HEAD LICE infection (p=0.54). There was a significant correlation between the sexes of the research and occupation of the mother with the infection of the HEAD LICE (p=0.001).Result: HEAD LICE infestation (pediculosis capitis) is still a crucial health issue worldwide. It is recommendable that proper information is provided to primary SCHOOLS teachers so that appropriate utilization of their capabilities in STUDENTS’ instruction, screening & treatment (therapy) is made possible.
