We have several students with severe allergies in our school.  Out of concern for their safety and wellbeing, we ask that students, staff and volunteers do not consume nuts or nut based products within our school.  While we recognize that this might pose a minor inconvenience for some people, we need to recognize that these products might mean the difference between life and death for those with severe allergies.  It is a collective responsibility to ensure that our school provides a safe environment for all who work and learn here.  It is strongly recommended that if your child has any serious medical concerns, to please let our staff know so that we can be sure to have the appropriate measures and procedures in place.  Children who do require an epi-pen should always carry the epi-pen with them in a “fanny pack” or similar device.  Please feel free to contact the school around any medical issue that arises with your child/children.
