Massachusetts: The students at Horace Mann School in Newton, Mass. might have to save their Valentines for after school, as the elementary school’s principal has suggested handing out origami instead of sugary treats, My Fox Boston reports.
According to the report, the school’s principal sent out a letter to parents asking them not to send candy with their children, as last year the overabundance of treats interfered with regular school day operations.
The letter also noted that Valentine’s Day candy violates the school’s food-sharing policy, as well as efforts to teach students healthy eating habits,WHDH TV reports.
Back in December, a Florida 10-year-old was arrested and charged with battery after allegedly attacking her teacher when the educator confiscated the student’s halloween candy
