What do I need to send for my child?

For a complete list, see Policy 2500 of the Purcell Preschool Policy Manual.

Can we send peanut butter?

This is a common and understandable question; that’s why it’s in our FAQs! Many children LOVE peanut butter but some children are allergic. That’s why all products that have even trace amounts of nuts in them are prohibited at Purcell Preschool. Our entire building is a nut-free facility.

Can we send treats for special occasions, such as birthdays and holidays?

Yes! We will be recognizing these special days and occasions; we just ask that you follow our nut-free policy and inform staff in advance.
Note: this opportunity to celebrate will not be available until the COVID-19 pandemic abates.
