The purpose of this project was to develop a food allergy informational poster for use in the classroom. The Center for Disease Control has estimated that an average of two children in each public school classroom in the United States struggled with a food allergy. Meanwhile, other researchers found that 25% of first-time anaphylaxis episodes occurred in classrooms. This Honors Project was developed to address the informational gap concerning anaphylaxis that occurs at schools. The methodology was literature review. The Honor Project\u27s outcome was the informational poster, Know the Signs of an Allergic Reaction: Anaphylaxis, as well as the supplemental PowerPoint presentation that was delivered to a local high school classroom
