Gum and Soda

Middle Canyon Elementary School is a “No Gum” school because chewing gum gets everywhere from floors to furniture is extremely difficult to clean up. 

We have had increasing problems with students bringing gum to school and not only chewing it, but sharing it with other students. 

We respectfully request your help as parents to ensure that students are not bringing or chewing gum on campus during the school day, and we appreciate your support of our enforcement of this rule at school.

Soda has also become a problem for many of the same reasons listed above.  If a student brings a small soda for his/her lunch, that is fine. 

However, the practice of bringing large quantities of soda or sharing soda with others isn’t acceptable.
