IHE's Snack & Birthday Policy

Snacks & Water: Healthy snacks are welcome. Water is the only beverage permitted in the classroom, and water bottles must be spill-proof with a secure lid.

Birthday Celebrations: In alignment with Iron Horse’s health policies and to keep all students safe from food allergies, we do not celebrate birthdays with food treats.

How We Celebrate: We make sure every student feels special on their big day! The class creates a personalized birthday book full of handwritten letters for the birthday child, and I provide a small gift. If your child would like to share something with the class, non-food favors (like small toys or novelties) are welcome, or you are invited to donate a board game or card game for the whole class to enjoy!
