Sugary Snacks

Dear Families,

I’ve noticed some students are coming to school with sugary snacks.  One student today had a snack that consisted of chocolate milk, Oreos, frosted animal crackers, and sugar wafer cookies.  The total sugar intake on that snack would have been 215 grams.  The American Heart Association recommends less than 25 grams of sugar/day for children up to 18 years of age.
