Valentines Day Reminders

Our Valentine’s Party will be Wednesday, February 14th from 1:30-2:45pm.  We will be serving candy and treats. You have already signed a permission slip giving your permission for student participation at the beginning of the year however, I know health needs and concerns can change. If your student has any allergies or special dietary needs I need to be aware of, PLEASE let me know before Wednesday so other options can be made. 

Valentine’s Helpful Hints:
1- We have 25 students in our class.
2- Only write who the Valentine is FROM. Do NOT address Valentine’s to each student (this will help the students distribute their Valentine’s in a more orderly manner).
3- Your student will be making AND decorating a SPECIAL Valentines Day sack to put ALL their valentine cards etc in while in class Wednesday. PLEASE DO NOT SEND A BOX OR OTHER CONTAINER with your student for the reason mentioned above.
4- To follow Quest’s wellness policy, only nonfood Valentine’s. Thank you. 

“Per Quest’s wellness policy, all food in the classroom must be preapproved. Furthermore, parental permission is also required for students to consume food during class parties. Due to this policy—as in years past—student Valentines cannot contain edible items. Suggestions for nonfood Valentines include pencils, erasers, bubbles, stickers, etc. Please note that such items, including Valentine cards, are in no way required.”
