Nut Policy

Slavens Elementary recognizes that food allergies can be life threatening. The number of children that have a food allergy is a staggering 1 in 13 and 16-18% of children with food allergies have had a reaction at school. In the U.S, fatal or near fatal reactions are most often caused by peanuts and tree nuts.

At Slavens, the safety of our children is of upmost importance. Because of the rising number of children with food allergies, and the severity of the allergic reaction to peanuts and tree nuts, Slavens is implementing the following Nut Policy effective August 2016.

Slavens Nut Policy:

We appreciate your support in implementing this new policy and keeping our Slavens food allergic children safe.
