At least one of the children in your child’s class has a severe allergy to nuts. Strict avoidance is the only way to prevent an allergic reaction. The reaction can be life- threatening. A reaction can be brought on by the touch and smell of peanut and nut products as well as by consuming them. We must do what we can to provide all students with a safe learning environment. In an effort to allow all students to participate fully in all class activities, we ask that you not send any foods which contain nut products in your child’s snack. Please pack lunch and snack separately. There will be a nut-free table in the cafeteria during the kindergarten lunch period. We need your awareness and your cooperation. With these precautions in place, all children will be afforded a safe, healthy and successful school environment. Below is a list of suggested snacks; you may find others that are also nut-free. Thank you for your cooperation.
