[quote=Anonymous]To answer the earlier post, yes,  lots of kids (and adults) have allergies to peanuts and tree nuts, like my two-year-old, and yes,  it's a terrifying world to live in!  (She's also allergic to sesame,  and hummus is a toddler staple these days. ..).  I have an older daughter so I've experienced both sides of this - the oh, seriously,  we can't send in peanut butter side?  And now the wow my kid could eat the wrong cookie and die side.  We appreciate all the empathy people can apply to the situation.  I agree that by junior high I want my daughter to be able to navigate this by herself.   But in elementary - especially preschool! - it's simply not feasible.

Fwiw, when I went on tours I recall the following were nut free (work varying degrees of enforcement):
cmi 
its 
Hearst

Not nut free:
marie reed 
sww-Francis Stevens
two rivers

Also relevant: all dcps schools have a nurse.   But not always full time,  I don't think.   Some charters have full time nurses and some don't.   DOH has school health reports online with more info. [/quote]
