I saw this on the news recently. Did anyone else see it? If so can you remember the school district or state?

Yeah sorry Minks - didn't explain too well (typing and cooking supper don't mix :wah:). I thought that it was the case that a lot of schools in Canada did, but not many here in USA. I just can't find out which School District or State it was.

I have a neice and nephew who if even catch a wiff of peanut will be hurled into severe life threatening asthmatic attacks. Very sad. My oldest daughters best bud was that way in Grade 6

"After learning that two students at Rock Creek Elementary could have life-threatening reactions to airborne allergens from peanuts, the school followed the advice of a pediatrician and banned peanuts, peanut products and items containing peanuts this year, McCullough said. Mount Hope Elementary, another school in the Fort Zumwalt School District, has been peanut-free for three years."
Is that the one?
