Health & Safety

In response to serious allergy alerts associated with peanuts, Crofton House School has established itself as a nut-free school. A number of students at CHS have peanut and nut allergies (some of which are life-threatening). We ask that no products containing nuts (peanut butter sandwiches, cookies, candy bars, etc.) be sent to school with any child. There are some children who have a severe reaction to even a slight exposure. Additional and less common food (and other) allergies will be addressed with the school community as needed.

Please be certain to notify us if a student has recently been exposed to, or has suffered from, any communicable conditions such as measles, chicken pox, head lice, impetigo, etc. This allows us to notify parents in the appropriate classes so they can be alert to the possibility of their own child contracting the disease or condition. Also, please notify the school if any change occurs in a student’s health status throughout a medical leave.
