Remove Shellfish from School Menus

We  the parents Peters Township School District request our school immediately remove shellfish from the school menus to avoid putting children at risk.

See data from Kids Health:

Most allergic reactions to shellfish happen when someone eats shellfish. But sometimes a person can react to touching shellfish or breathing in vapors from cooking shellfish.

Shellfish allergy can develop at any age. Even people who have eaten shellfish in the past can develop an allergy. Some people outgrow certain food allergies over time, but those with shellfish allergies usually have the allergy for the rest of their lives.
