Healthy Celebrations Letter for Families

In order to send a consistent message to students about good nutrition and healthy eating, it is important that celebrations reflect the healthy practices that are in place throughout schools. Schools can use this editable resource to send families information about ways in which they can work together to support healthy, safe, and inclusive celebrations. For example, during birthdays, holidays, or school-wide celebrations, families and staff can provide students with opportunities to be physically active and enjoy healthy foods and beverages, while ensuring that food allergies and cultural and religious dietary requirements are considered.
