Birthdays are a very special time for young children. The Frisco ISD School Advisory Council has recommended that as a district we continue to celebrate birthdays, but discontinue the food component of the celebration. The concerns for student health have increased, with the issue of children and allergic reactions to certain foods/food ingredients growing in particular. The treats parents are providing come from many sources and there is no real control regarding ingredients and/or the processing of the treats.
As Pink Elementary, we will offer students the opportunity to purchase a book for our library with a special nameplate attached, announce birthdays during morning announcements, and allow students to come to the office on the day of their birthday for a pencil, sticker, and birthday spirit stick. If your child has a summer birthday we will celebrate their birthday towards the end of the school year.
On Meet the Teacher Night there will be shirts available for purchase in the cafeteria. There will also be a form going home at the beginning of school for you to purchase t-shirts. Anyone in the front office would be glad to assist you with purchasing of a t-shirt as well.
