Let's Keep Our Classrooms Clean and Focused

Tue, 04/02/2024 - 1:27pm

Families, we need your help in keeping our classrooms a clean, positive, and distraction-free learning environment. We have noticed students bringing candy and gum to school, which ends up as litter in our hallways and playgrounds! Here's a quick refresher on our food and candy guidelines:

● Candy Time: If packed in lunches, candy is for lunchtime only. Ideally, we encourage healthy snacks and treats!

● Please, no Gum. Gum can be distracting, unsafe during physical activity, and hard to clean up.

● Snack Breaks: Teachers may schedule snack times outside of breakfast and lunchtimes as needed.

● In accordance with HCPSS Policy 9090 – Wellness Through Nutrition and Physical Activity, students may not share food/candy with their peers.

Please help us reinforce these expectations with your child. Thank you for your continued support.
