Help promote healthy eating!! If you are going to bring a snack or treat for your classmates (birthday, Halloween, Christmas, etc), please choose a healthy alternative. This list was compiled by students and is not complete. You may bring anything that is healthy.
As much as we all LOVE homemade goods, KS guidelines require food products shared with classmates be made in a certified commercial kitchen, so most likely items from a store or bakery. Please no nuts or nut products (all tree nuts). Be creative and have fun…..Mahalo!
