We have two nutrition breaks, each being 40 minutes; 20 minutes to eat and 20 minutes to play. Please label your child's food containers with a 1 or a 2 to indicate whether it is a morning snack or a lunch item.
We are NUT FREE. Please be sure to read labels. Do not send anything to school that contains any nuts or nut oils.
We are a "Best Wishes Only" school. Birthdays will be recognized. Please do not send food treats to school.
Medical Information
Medical Information
School personnel do not administer non-prescription over-the-counter medication. Arrangements can be made for school personnel to administer prescribed, routine medications in the original container with the prescription label affixed. EpiPens, asthma inhalers & prescribed medication can be administered only after the appropriate authorization forms are completed. If your child has a medical condition or allergy, it is imperative that you notify your teacher and the school office immediately. Forms should be received by our office during the first week the office re-opens (usually the 3rd week of August). It is CRITICAL that we have these well in advance of the first day of school.
