Allergy Information

Health and safety is a top priority at the CFC. Several years ago, because of concern for the children in our community with allergies, we banned peanuts, tree nuts, and products made with these ingredients from the CFC. Accordingly, parents should follow these safety guidelines:

  • Families of children with allergies including nut and/or seed allergies must inform their child’s teacher and the Director. An Emergency Action Plan must be completed and signed by the child’s physician and given to the Director before the start of each new year.
  • Families (including those whose children are not allergic) must not send in any snacks that contain nuts of any kind.

In addition, faculty are trained to recognize symptoms of a severe allergic reaction and how to use an epinephrine auto injector as per protocol.

You can find information about this at www.faan.org.
