Dear Parent/Guardian;

Recently our state enacted legislation to address the increasing number of students with severe food allergies that require measures to be taken to ensure a greater degree of safety while they are at school. In response to these new legislative requirements, the Ferndale School District is changing some procedures regarding food distribution at school. The changes will significantly reduce the distribution of food from staff to students and the sharing of food between students.
