Visit www.gorillakids.com for information.  This program can be utilized for the Extended Day Program snack ordering also.

    Although we are a “nut free” school, there are some nut alternatives we can suggest in lieu of peanut butter or almond butter – common items in the kindergarten lunch list! Students may bring lunch items to include Sunflower Seed Spread (Sunbutter) or Soy Nut Butter since neither of these contains actual nuts. These items are available at stores such as Trader Joe’s & Whole Foods.

    A “nut” is not just a peanut but also includes tree nuts such as almond, brazil, cashew, chestnut, hazelnut, macadamia nut, pecan, pine, pistachio or walnut. In consideration of all of our students, please refrain from all NUT products!  We have students with severe nut allergies, please follow the South Loop Way and adhere to this school-wide policy.
