Important Allergy Notice for Kindergarten & 1st Grade Families

We have students in Kindergarten and 1st grade with severe, life-threatening nut allergies. For their safety, it is essential that they are not exposed to any nuts.

We kindly ask parents/guardians to be mindful when sending snacks to school. Please avoid packing any items that contain nuts for classroom snacks in order to minimize the risk of accidental exposure.

To support this, nut restrictions will be in place in the following classrooms:

Kindergarten Homeroom: Mrs. Behlings and Ms. Alexamphy
1st Grade Homeroom: Ms. Yeny and Mrs. C

Students may still bring foods containing nuts in their lunches; however, we have a designated nut-free table in the cafeteria. Staff will closely monitor these students to ensure their safety.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us keep all of our children safe and healthy!
