SUGARY SNACK AND DRINK RESTRICTIONS
It has been the observation of the principal, health tech and many teachers that students, who consume sweet snacks, sugary drinks or soda during lunch or for snack, often have difficultly learning later in the day. The high amount of caffeine and/or sugar causes students to experience a “sugar high” for a small part of the day and then a serious drop in blood sugar later while learning. This drop in blood sugar often causes students to feel sleepy, unfocused and causes them to not be able to perform at their best abilities. Please do not send sweet snacks such as candy, sugar drinks or soda pop to school. Free Water is always available to students in the lunchroom and Milk can be purchased for 50 cents.
Thank you for working with us to help your child perform at their best.
