Dear  Families:

You’ve all read the headlines and seen the news stories: food allergies are a growing concern in schools across America. Millions of children - children who are perfectly healthy and normal in every other way - must watch every single bite they eat, or risk suffering a severe or even life-threatening reaction. A major health issue such as this one needs to be taken very seriously, and it has always been the practice of this school to make the safety and well-being of our students our top priority.

At least one student in your child’s class has a serious nut allergy.  Therefore, we are putting the following safety guidelines into effect:
·         Please do not send any peanuts/tree nuts or foods containing peanuts/tree nuts to be eaten as snacks in the classroom. Students can enjoy peanuts/tree nuts at lunch time keeping their lunch in their locker until then.  Examples of tree nuts include almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, macadamia, pine nuts, pistachios, hazelnuts, Brazil nut, chestnuts, filberts and hickory nuts. It is ok for other students to eat snacks labeled “Made in the Same Facility as Tree nuts” or “Made on the same equipment as…” Just avoid snacks that have peanut/tree nut as part of the ingredients. For a safe snack guide (nut-free) go to the following link:  http://snacksafely.com/download/.
·         We will not be doing any classroom projects that involve tree nuts (like bird feeders) or nut shells (art projects). Please do not send any of these projects into the classroom with your child.
·         Please adhere to our Student Handbook guidelines regarding birthdays (page 16).  We want to celebrate and recognize birthdays of our students as we know they are important events in their lives. If parents wish to celebrate a child’s birthday with a “treat” at the school, we are asking the recognition to be non food-based. While health and wellness is the primary reason, more and more children have dietary restrictions, such as food intolerance, food allergies, students with medical conditions, and those trying to reduce their consumption of foods that are high in calories and low in nutrition.
·         If your child eats nuts for breakfast, we would greatly appreciate your making sure that his/her hands are washed with soap and water before leaving for school. Water alone does not do the trick!
This is a learning process for all of us, but we trust that you understand how deeply important it is to respect and adhere to these guidelines. I encourage you to get a sense of this life-threatening allergy by viewing a short video.  Check out this short educational video at the following link: https://vimeo.com/206662895?ref=em-v-share.  If throughout the course of the year you have any questions or concerns about food-allergy-related issues, please do not hesitate to contact any one of us.

Wishing you and your family a safe and healthy school year!

Sincerely,

Mark Morawski                 Jason Hill
