Nut Senstive POLICY

 

The Early Childhood Education Center has implemented a strict nut sensitive environment for the entire school. A number of our children have a life-threatening nut allergy. All food (including snacks and lunches) brought into the classroom will be screened.

Please read ingredient labels carefully and do not send foods containing the following:

  • Traces of nuts, peanuts, tree nuts (almonds, walnuts, etc.)
  • Peanut or other nut oils
  • Peanut or other tree nut butters
  • Coconut or coconut oil  (*added August 2017)
  • Hydrolyzed vegetable protein
  • READ LABELS on any bakery or grocery store items
  • Anything containing “may be assembled in a facility that also processes peanut or other nut products” on a line above or below the ingredient list on a food label cannot be served 

Any food items that do not adhere to these guidelines cannot be served to the child and will be returned home.  The child will be offered an appropriate food item in its place.
