** A classmate is providing pizza for the class tomorrow (Wednesday, October 17, 2018) in our class for lunch.  I surveyed the students for their preferences.  If your children wish to bring in other items for themselves (personal snack, fruit, drink, or other item), that is on a student by student basis only to ensure there is no cross-contamination for potential allergies.  If you wish to have your child opt out of the lunch (and eat in the cafeteria or at home) that is perfectly fine.
