Food Allergen Awareness

04/25/2025 NYC Public Schools
We want to ensure your child receives the best care possible at school. That’s why we treat allergies, food safety, and student health with the utmost importance and work with parents at their request to create management plans for their children so they are less likely to be exposed to allergens in school. We cannot guarantee a nut-free, milk-free, or allergen-free environment. Still, we do offer product documentation at request on all food items from vendors and manufacturers regarding allergens present within the food itself or at the facility level. Please provide a specific item list when requesting allergen information and product documentation. Visit our allergies webpage to learn more about our policies and forms.
