Food Allergies
If your child has a food allergy, you must notify us in writing so that we can make appropriate substitutions. Food allergies can be life threatening and each child with a food allergy should have an action plan for emergency care completed by the family physician.
Severe Food Allergies or Special Diets
In order to ensure the safety of children with severe food allergies (extreme and rapid reactions, allergic to many foods, etc.) or those requiring a highly specialized diet (gluten free, strictly vegan, kosher, etc.), the school reserves the right to request that families bring their child’s food that has been prepared according to individual needs.
