As the Holidays Approach

Just a couple of notes…..

1. As I am sure you are aware, the new NES Healthy Food procedures are aligned with the District Student Nutrition Policy. A copy of the finalized document is on the other side of this note. With Halloween approaching, all parents need to be aware that:

We are not discouraging celebrations. However, all food consumed at holiday celebrations must adhere to the policy. So, we ask that you take the lead from the classroom teacher, who will surely have some ideas about healthy snacks that can be sent in, either individually wrapped or from a food-safe vendor. A small item such as a pencil or sticker is also acceptable.

However, the procedure clearly states that candy is not to be sent to school. Please assist us by adhering to this request.

2. Beginning Friday, October 27, all students being picked up at NES after 2:55 will be dismissed from the school cafeteria. This change is being made to improve dismissal security and ensure that all dismissals to parents go through the assistants trained for that purpose. Parents coming to the office after 3:00 will be sent to the cafeteria.

Thank you for being considerate and helping us improve NES.
