CJSF member Madi Foster, ’23, delivers a candy grams to her sister Dani Foster, ’20, during lunch, Feb. 14.

Candy grams have been an FC Valentine’s tradition for many years.

Packages were on sale for a week, costing one dollar. After receiving hundreds of submissions, CJSF students spend the following days filling packages with a variety of traditional candies.

Each package includes a handwritten note, filled out by the buyer.

Carlee Whipple has bought candy grams for her friends since the beginning of elementary school. She thinks this tradition is a wonderful way to show her friends some love on Valentine’s Day.

“I have bought many candy grams for each of my friends almost every year, since as long as I can remember,” Whipple said. “The best thing about candy grams is that it makes you feel loved. Even if it is from your mom, or even your teacher. It’s a really nice feeling know that someone thought of you on Valentine’s Day.”

These candy creations are purchased by teachers, parents, friends and siblings.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Did you buy a candy gram for a loved one this year? We would love to hear your Valentine’s Day traditions in the comments down below.
