Snack Dos and Don'ts

SNACKS
 Each child will have an opportunity to bring in snack for the class on a rotating basis.  The snack is important as it bridges home and school.  It becomes special because

• You and your child select it.
• Your child is sharing it with his/her school friends.
• Your child is the class leader and flag person this day.

Your child’s teacher will notify you which snack day is your child’s.
COVID regulations, allow snack to be distributed by staff from 1 large container. 
All students will wash/wipe their hands before and after snack.

Please keep in mind that our snack time is brief.  We appreciate your cooperation in keeping the snacks healthy and simple.  Check with the classroom teachers or office if there is something special you would like to bring.  We reserve the right to refuse any snack that we feel is not appropriate (i.e. choking hazard).  Any questions, please ask.  

**AT THIS TIME, WE CAN NOT ACCEPT ANY SNACK THAT WAS PREPARED/CUT IN YOUR HOME.  Only closed pre-packaged foods are allowed.
