VALENTINE’S
DAY
Dear Parents,
Exchanging Valentine’s cards is a favorite activity for
elementary students. All students may bring in valentines to exchange on
Friday, February 14. PLEASE NOTE: Due to our new policy on snacking and
food allergies, children are NOT allowed to bring in valentines with
ANY type of candy attached to them or valentines that are packages of candy. There
is no way to monitor and ensure that all candy brought in is on the safe snack
list, therefore it is easier to just let the children exchange cards. IF
your child brings cards with candy, we will have to send them back home.
Thank you so much for helping us keep all of our children safe by following
this policy.
