Abstract
The management of IgE-mediated food allergies in K-12 schools and early childcare centers poses unique challenges to schools, families of children with food allergies, and allergists and other food allergy-focused health care providers. Despite the shifting landscape of food allergy, children must be kept safe, have access to emergency medications, and be included at school, and a child's education must not suffer due to food allergies. In this article, we describe strategies and evidence, where existent, for managing food allergies at school. We also provide insight into challenges faced by all parties and guidance on successfully navigating such situations.
