Friendly reminder

Please remember that we are a peanut/nut free classroom. We have friends with severe allergies in the room and they may go into shock if they even touch something that somebody else that ate peanut butter or peanut products touched. Please help us to keep all of our friends safe by not sending in food items that have peanut butter/nuts/peanuts in for snack or lunch. Thank you so much for your understanding!
