Birthday Policy

Birthday Celebrations

Birthdays are an important part of being a child. Village Elementary School believes every child should be recognized on their birthday or during the month of their birthday. Acknowledgment of students' birthdays will include “Happy Birthday” acknowledgment during Morning Announcements, a Happy Birthday sticker, and a pencil from the main office. 

We are restricting the distribution of food items allowed for birthday celebrations due to dietary, religious, and health concerns. Families can either purchase food items directly from Chartwells or use our Safe Snack/Birthday Celebration list. 

Please consult with your child’s classroom teacher prior to obtaining the Birthday Celebration item as there may be additional severe allergies in your child’s classroom other than peanuts/tree nuts. Birthday invitations cannot be delivered during school hours unless every student in the class is invited. 

Goody bags or containers are not allowed to be distributed.
