Snack Time

Since we do not eat lunch until 12:20, students are encouraged to bring a snack to school each day.

Please make sure the snack is PEANUT-FREE, TREE-NUT FREE, and small, so that your child can eat without distraction while working.

Some safe options are:

  • Goldfish crackers
  • Pretzels (please check the labels)
  • Yogurt
  • Cut up vegetables or fruit
  • Go-Go Squeeze pouches or fruit cups
  • Cheese sticks

Please avoid granola products, as many of these products are made in a factory with peanut products.

Special Schedule

Day 1 - Art

Day 2 - Music

Day 3 - Library

Day 4 - Gym **Sneakers Please**

School Improvement Efforts: Little Bites Fundraiser

This year, our Earth Day Committee has organized a Little Bits Fundraiser to help support the costs of our school improvement and beautification efforts, especially projects related to Earth Day activities. We will be collecting empty Little Bits packages throughout the school year. Each pouch donated earns us 2 cents and will be turned into recyclable products by various companies. Please help us in these efforts and send in those Little Bites packages!
