We encourage students to bring a water bottle daily. Water is the only drink allowed in the classroom.
We will also allow a working snack. Please do not send candy/sweets as a snack. Snacks must be nut free. Snacks that leave sticky or colorful residue on student's fingers should also be avoided. Thank you!
