May I bring in a birthday cake for the class on my child's birthday?

Many parents of our younger students wish to bring in cupcakes, or a birthday cake on or around their child's birthday.

Many parents of our younger students wish to bring in cupcakes, or a birthday cake on or around their child's birthday. Kentwood encourages parents to do this, but certain policies must be followed for this to occur. Parents must inform the front office at least a week in advance if they plan to bring in a birthday cake. This will avoid scheduling conflicts with field trips, sports events, or other scheduled curriculum activities. Secondly the parents may attend, but must first clear this with the front office and register before entering campus. Finally the time of the celebration will usually be just before the end of school, between 2:00 pm and 2:30 pm.
