Here is the Valentine's Day memo, as promised:
"Valentine‚s Day FYI*all schools are receiving this memo*.As for me, I have decided that I will give each of my students a prune for Valentine's Day.
As Valentine's Day approaches, students and parents need to be reminded that candy will NOT be allowed for distribution as part of a Valentine's Day celebration. The MMSD Wellness Policy prohibits candy and nuts, even during special events. Encourage families to provide alternate treats such as frozen fruit bars, popcorn, jello jigglers, nut-free treats, etc. Parties should be scheduled after lunch so they don't interfere with kids eating their lunches. Try to avoid other February parties."

A prune, there's a statement, I like it!
I love it....a prune!!
How much more can they take away? I know candy isn't the best thing in the world but it isn't going to be like a steady diet of the stuff if a kid gets a treat for Valentine's Day.
I am really fixated on this right now, as you can see. I will not send a note home about this to my families. If the district wants to disseminate this information, they can darn well do it themselves.
