This legislation would prove so useful! Our son is a first-grader and has a life-threatening peanut allergy. I am baffled that the state has not joined others who have made guidelines and policies for schools to follow. As it stands, we have had to fight for policies and procedures at our school.
And, even with our efforts, our son had a reaction (thankfully he is okay now), and it was not taken as a peanut allergy, and no medication was given until we arrived 10 to 15 minutes after the exposure!
Kudos to all involved with supporting this bill!
