Read the following message sent out today regarding Halloween candy tomorrow:
Good afternoon, everyone, and Happy Halloween! I am writing to you to seek your partnership for tomorrow. Halloween can be a wonderful event for our students, especially those who participate in Trick-Or-Treating. With that in mind, we are asking for your help in NOT sending students to school with excessive Halloween candy tomorrow. The reasons are as follows:
Health and Nutrition: Schools promote healthy eating habits, and too much candy can contribute to unhealthy snacking. With growing concerns over child health, it’s essential to limit sugary treats in school settings.
Allergy Safety: Many children and staff members have food allergies, especially to ingredients like nuts or dairy found in Halloween candy. Avoiding candy in school can prevent potential allergic reactions.
Focus on Learning: Schools are environments focused on learning. Sugary treats can lead to sugar rushes and crashes, affecting concentration and classroom behavior.
Inclusivity: Some students may not celebrate Halloween, and bringing candy can create feelings of exclusion. By avoiding candy in school, you can create a more inclusive environment for everyone.
Preventing Mess and Distractions: Candy wrappers and sticky treats can create a mess in classrooms and become a distraction. Limiting candy helps keep the school clean and minimizes distractions.
We thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Dr. Rebecca Adams
