Weekly Principal’s Message for December 4, 2023
A Message From Principal Serpa:
Happy Monday Tiger Families! With the holiday season here, we all become very festive. As we spread joy throughout the month, it comes with some challenges. One of those challenges is the consumption of sweets. Many classes will have parties and fun activities. Just like any other time of year, if you plan to bring treats, keep them healthy and limit the amount of sugar. Always communicate with the teacher ahead of time for permission before bringing in treats. Absolutely, no soda or caffeinated beverages are allowed.
Please refer to the Student Wellness Board Policy 5030: “School staff shall encourage parents/guardians or other volunteers to support the district's nutrition education program by considering nutritional quality when selecting any snacks which they may donate for occasional class parties and by limiting foods or beverages that do not meet nutritional standards to no more than one such food or beverage per party. Class parties or celebrations shall be held after the lunch period when possible.”
Let’s all do our part to help students learn to make healthy food choices.
