How Long Do Ring Worms Last?

Hi! I m a grandma watching my 5yr old grandson today because he has two ringworm patches on his face. He is being treated with antifungal creams. I know it is very contagious. When can he return to school. His mother is scheduled to deliver #2 in a couple of weeks. She should stay clear of him as well, correct?
