Allergy Alert


Dear First Graders,

A student in the class has a life-threatening allergy to peanuts and tree nuts. Below are the allergy rules for our class FOR SNACK TIME!
  • Please send your child’s snack in a separate container from his/her lunch bag. Students are not allowed to open lunch bags in the classroom.
  • All snacks, unless fruit or veggies, must have a label on them.  Students who bring snacks without a label will not be allowed to eat them in the classroom.  Mrs. Murphy and I will be checking snack every day. 
  • I do have “emergency” snacks that are available as we become accustomed to the rules above. Beginning Monday, September 12th, students who do not follow the allergy protocol will be able to buy an approved nut free snack from the cafeteria. 
  • Students are allowed to bring foods with the above ingredients for lunch. There is a separate area in the cafeteria that is safe for children with allergies.
​We will discuss our classroom guidelines for birthday celebrations and go into more depth on Back to School Night, September 20th. 

Please feel free to contact Mrs. Murphy (the school nurse) or I if you have any questions.

Thank you for your help keeping our classroom safe for everyone!​

Bear Hugs,
