How about that? Two of the six "smart snacks" have nuts in them.
Up until a couple of years ago, Coppell ISD was a very conservative school district. We're going to start looking at educational alternatives for my son. It's going to break his heart, because that's all he's ever known.
You think that’s bad? My town is about to vote on banning fracking in the middle of the biggest energy boom in the history of mankind.
Don’t have time to pack a classroom snack for your elementary student? We offer a variety of healthy snack options available for purchase. Review the Smart Snacks in School flyer for additional information.
I don't want to get anyone in trouble, i.e. for not quoting a passage properly. Unlike our Vice President, I don't plagiarize. lol
He asked me if there was any peanut butter or other nut products anywhere in my (immaculately clean) home. I advised there was an unopened jar of peanut butter in the cupboard, but that it was still sealed with the foil top and the plastic lid.
Nope, that wasn't good enough. He asked me to please put it in the detached garage while they were visiting. I find it rather hard to believe nut residue could remotely be that powerful.
All the Californians moving to Texas will screw it all up. Thanks Perry.
There are no public schools that are not liberal. There is no such thing as conservative public school districts
Run for the board. Or, get close to any conservatives on the board.
Send that along with a bill for those teachers to replace the granola bar. Sure, it’s only a dollar but it will get the point across.
My youngest grandson thinks I scored a real winner by purchasing a new variety of Oreo’s which are filled with pumpkin frosting. According to him, they are fine to eat since pumpkin is a vegetable.
The district policy manual is here (see page #7): http://www.coppellisd.com/cms/lib07/TX01000550/Centricity/Domain/1007/CISD_ElementaryHandbook.pdf
I did not see any prohibition of nuts, just prohibition of “no nutritional value” snacks provided by the school during school hours. They do refer you to the Texas Dept. of Ag for national school lunch requirements. But this statement in the policy manual would seem to allow the granola bar in question to be brought to school:
“This policy does not restrict what parents may provide for their own child’s lunch or snacks. Parents may continue to bring lunch of any type to their child at school during the school day, but may not share or give any restricted food items to other students.”
Sad for him that it took you that long to figure out that the people that run and teach in our public schools HATE YOU and HATE YOUR TYPE (assuming a white family). Their priority has ALWAYS been the groups that they consider “oppressed” and other than the money your kid brings into the school from various sources, they could care less what happens to him.
Nothing personal, but I happened to go to college with a bunch of “Education” majors and lived in a dorm full of them (by accident)...and had plenty of political debates, and believe me, I never let my kids near those people.
Hope things work out now!
