Dear Parent/Guardians,
Remember being eager for snack time at school? Well, times haven’t changed much when it comes to looking forward to a break with something good to eat. Your room 3 Kinder Knight will be given the opportunity to enjoy snack time Monday through Friday at approximately 2pm.
Studies have shown that eating healthy foods, especially during the school day, plays an important role in student performance. With this in mind, let’s work together to keep snack time at school both delicious and nutritious. Below is a list of suggested snacks that fall into this category. Also included are foods that are not permitted during this snack-time recess.

By providing nutritious snacks, you are helping to grow healthy minds and bodies, and contribute to the peace and calm of our classroom. Soda, high-sugar drinks and candy should not be brought to school. Feel free to pack a small “sweet-treat” to be eaten at lunchtime. Provide only enough for you child as sharing is not permitted in school due to friends with food allergies. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter!
Sincerely, Ms. Jones ☺
