Wellness Policy

On November 24, 2014, our Board passed Wellness Policy ADF which includes restrictions on outside foods brought into District Five Schools for student consumption. This policy was established to ensure student safety regarding food allergies and dietary restrictions. Beginning in August 2015, food brought from outside the school for student consumption must be commercially prepared and packaged or sealed. Food should be labeled with specific ingredients or the ingredients should be easily accessible online. This policy does not apply to food that a parent/legal guardian may provide for his/her child’s consumption at school. Feel free to contact your child’s teacher or school administration if you have any questions or concerns.
