Food and Treats Policy
Parent(s) / Guardian(s) of Forrestville Valley Elementary Schools,
Please read the below regarding changes to lunch food, birthdays, and other special event treats.
As always, keeping our students safe is our first priority at FV Elementary Schools.
We will continue to require all treats brought to school for birthdays or other special events to be store bought with a factory seal. Homemade items, as well as items baked at grocery stores or bakeries, are not permitted unless they have a factory seal. If it has a factory seal, it is permissible at school. If it does not, it is not permissible at school.
This school year students may bring food with nuts for lunch, birthdays, or other special events. Nut-free zones will be established based on individual student needs in the cafeteria and/or specific classrooms. Additional communications will be sent if your child’s classroom is a nut-free zone with any additional safety precautions.
Please feel free to contact our offices at Forreston Grade School 815-938-2301 or German Valley Grade School 815-362-2279 with any questions or concerns regarding the 2019-2020 school year. Thank you for helping FVElementary Schools provide a safe environment for our students.
Sincerely,
Mr. Schneiderman
Principal
