I'd be pissed off enough if I agreed to babysit one child that the parents just administered a bunch of sugary and high calorie food. If I was a teacher of 20 kids or more that the parents equipped with a bunch of cookies and crap to eat later, I would probably want a little control.

I have been around enough 6 year olds to see how diet affects their behaviour, and not to mention cognitive development. Put yourself in the teacher's shoes.
