MIAMI-DADE COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CULTURAL AFFAIRS
NO SUGAR POLICY
Dear Parents:
We would like you to take another look at our “No Sugar Policy” memo (see attached). Recently, while walking through the classrooms, we have seen a decline in the quality of foods the students are bringing for both lunches and Pre K-KG snacks. We would like to remind you of several guidelines:
o Please refrain from bringing lunchables. These contain high levels of sodium and other carcinogenic chemicals. Lunchables also contain soda and candy which we do not permit.
o Please refrain from bringing your children lunches from fast food restaurants such as: McDonalds, Wendy’s, and Burger King. These foods have little to no nutritional value. (Please see the documentary Super size Me).
o Please refrain from bringing foods that are processed and have food coloring additives. Research shows that these additives can be harmful to students by causing allergies, poor concentration and behavioral problems.
o Pre K-KG parents, please try to provide snacks that are wholesome, such as fresh fruit, vegetables and 100% fruit juice.
o Please do not bring birthday cakes or cupcakes for birthdays or any other events.
We realize that we are not a perfect school in terms of following a “non sugar” “non chemical” food policy. However, by following these guidelines, we can attempt to provide our children with a more nutritional diet. As a Montessori school, we must be committed to nurturing our children holistically.
We must strive to provide an environment that promotes a healthy body and mind. For your information, we have also enclosed a list of healthy snacks and foods for lunch.
If we can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the school.
Sincerely,
Lucy C. Golden, Co-Director Juliet King, Co-Director
