It's going to be a magical journey of music through generations.

During this time of the year when there are many classroom or school-wide events and celebrations, it is important to remember that some students at Sea Crest have severe, life threatening food allergies including dairy, gluten, soy, shellfish, tree nuts and peanuts.
When preparing
food for potlucks, bake sales, celebrations, or school gatherings, please
avoid peanuts and tree nuts and clearly mark any dishes that may include them. To learn more about this condition and how we can support our students with severe food allergies,
Amy Regan Morehouse, a Sea Crest parent, shared with us her family's experience. Please
click here to watch her presentation:
video or
slides.
Thank you, Amy!
