Same here. None of our schools have things like this. Here, it's the responsibility of the parents to ensure the children know what they are allowed to eat - ie teach them that they don't eat other children's food, only eat what they take for lunch and snacks etc. And of course the school knows about kids with allergies and are all trained in dealing with allergies etc and they do keep an eye on them.
I applaud your attitude, Maggie, you get on that board. If the school has a ban on peanuts/pb then how hard is it to say to your kid 'I don't care what anyone else's kid is doing, the school says no peanut butter, so you're not having peanut butter.'
