Gathering Feedback (Last Call!)

Thank you to everyone who has responded. If you have not yet had a chance to respond, we would still love your feedback! Thank you!


In November of 2022, we asked families to complete a survey. We had over 100 responses to this survey, which helped us better support students and families. This week, we ask again that families complete the same survey. (listed and linked below) We are interested in your feedback on how we can make King a place where all students and families feel that they belong.

Allergy Friendly Classrooms

  • We ask that snacks (that are often eaten in the classroom) do not include nuts or nut butters. All classroom spaces at King this year will be allergy friendly rooms. Students are, however, allowed to have nuts and nut butters as part of their lunches in the cafeteria.
  • In the cafeteria each classroom has 2 tables. One is labeled allergy friendly. We ask that any students that have nut or nut butter allergies sit at these tables; we ask that any students who have nut or nut butters as part of their lunch sit at the other tables.
  • Students have been introduced to this in the cafeteria already, and will be reminded by their classroom teachers again.

Tour the school with ROARY!
