La Grange School District 105 is committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for students. La Grange School District 105 understands the increasing prevalence of life threatening allergies among school populations, recognizing that the risk of accidental exposure to allergens can be reduced in the school setting. District 105 is committed to working in cooperation with parents, students, and physicians to minimize risks and provide a safe educational environment for all students. While it is not possible for the district to completely eliminate the risk of exposure to allergens when a student is at school, a food allergy management program using a cooperative effort among students' families, staff members, and students helps the district reduce these risks and provide accommodations and proper treatment for allergic reactions. The focus of allergy management shall encompass awareness, prevention, education, communication and emergency response.
