Parents encouraged to refrain from using peanut products
There are several students in
different grade levels and classrooms with varying
degrees of peanut/tree
allergies. For the safety of these students, please
refrain from using peanuts, including peanut butter, in
any projects done on school property. We also ask that all
parents keep peanut products to a minimum, especially if
you know that your child shares a classroom with a
student with food-related allergies.
