Birthdays

If you would like to send a birthday gift for your child’s class you must make arrangements with the classroom teacher beforehand. We encourage families to bring non-food items to celebrate instead of sugary treats. Any food treats presented will need to be done in accordance with our school and district allergy response plan. Balloons or presents for your child should be presented at home, as valuable learning time is lost when classrooms are interrupted. Birthday invitations should be mailed from home. If the whole class is invited, then invitations may go home in School-Home Communication Folders, otherwise no passing out invitations at school as this will help avoid hurt feelings.
