Halloween is chock-full of tricks and treats - a fun time of the year for all, but a time that is scary to children with life threatening food allergies and their parents on a whole different level.  Over the next couple weeks, with candy abounding, please be mindful of what you send into school with your child for snack and lunch. The most common food allergies (many found in candy) are: peanuts, tree nuts, milk, wheat, eggs, soy, fish and shellfish. Please read labels carefully to ensure the safety of all children. A product that contains a "Top 8" allergen or is labeled "May Contain", "Contains" or "Made in a facility that processes" the allergen is not safe for a child with that particular food allergy. Additionally, please be sensitive to children who may have allergies to foods beyond the "Top 8" if they are known in your child's classroom.

A list of allergy-friendly snacks can be found here. For additional information on allergy awareness in Greenwich Public Schools, please refer to the district's guideline here.
