Santa Monica School District Peanut Ban

 

 

Some classrooms are already peanut free.

Now, some students at Santa Monica High School are considering asking the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District Board of Education for an all-out ban at their school.

In its newest edition published Tuesday, the student newspaper reported that there's a petition calling for the ban being circulated by students who suffer from peanut allergies.

 

The report was accompanied by a feature story in the arts and entertainment section chronicling the life of a student with severe peanut allergies. Johanna Turner was home schooled the second-half of her junior year after suffering allergic reactions on campus.

Now in her senior year, Turner wears a hypoallergenic mask during lunch and passing periods.
