Peanut-Free Policy To create the safest, healthiest and most inclusive environment for all of our students, Northpoint Co-Op has implemented a peanut-free policy, which states that we will attempt to maintain an environment free of peanuts. Foods containing peanuts are not allowed at school for snack, lunch or celebrations. The list includes peanuts and peanut butter; granola or granola bars that contain peanuts; cakes, cookies or other baked goods with peanuts or peanut oil; and toppings containing peanuts or peanut butter. Only items that actually contain nuts or nut products in the list of ingredients should be left at home. To be clear, allergic children cannot eat items “manufactured in a facility” with nuts or “processed on shared equipment” with nuts labels, but these foods can safely be consumed by other children nearby.
