Party Invitations and Birthday Celebrations

May my student bring a special birthday treat to share with classmates?

Any parent who wishes to bring in birthday treats for a student must notify the student's core teacher/Advisor well in advance, with information as to what type of treat and what day it will arrive. (We like to avoid multiple treats on the same day and want to be sure to the best of our ability that all food is peanut free.) Then, as agreed upon, on the special day the treats should be delivered by the parent to the core teacher/Advisor before school, or to the Main Office after school start. Core teachers/Advisors will then determine how and when the treats will be distributed.

May my student hand out invitations at school to his party?

One of the delightful things about watching your child grow up is to see the social development that takes place. We want our students to make friends, and birthday parties are an important part of childhood. If you and your student are inviting the whole class to the party, feel free to hand out the invitations at school. If, however, not everyone is invited, please handle the invitations privately off campus.
