About Food Allergies

Many students attending our school have food allergies, especially to peanuts, tree nuts (like walnuts, pecans, and almonds) milk, eggs, soy, wheat, fish, and shellfish. Students who have food allergies need all of us to help keep them safe. Please read the attached information sheet and share it with your child, or you can read more at www.faankids.org.
