So, then, what is "bring" for? Curious.
It’s for you to tell someone to bring it to you. You can’t bring anything yourself. Bring and take go in opposite directions.

Our APS doesn't allow it. Ask the teacher.

My moco school celebrates bday every month. You contribute when it is your child's month.

It is different from school to school. Ours allows treats, yet our neighboring schools do not.

I'm curious if you understand the issue isn't allergies. The issue is it's disruptive and the kids don't need to be wound up on sugar 25-30 times a year when learning is supposed to be happening.

That's not true.
It is true at some FCPS schools.

Totally depends on teacher/school. My FCPS 3rd grader took in full-sized donuts to pass out at lunch (all the same).

Those 2 bit cupcakes from Whole Foods are great for the little ones.
They also have a school safe brand that has cookie bars.

Same. You can donate a game or book to the classroom.
Our FCPS also does not allow cupcakes due to number of children with various food allergies. If you want to do something, they recommend donating a book for the class. DD really enjoyed picking out a few books for her class.
Same in my kids' FCPS classes. I really like this option, as do the kids. The teachers invited me to come in and read one of the books aloud to the class before they were donated.
