Lunch
Students who choose to eat lunch at school may either bring a sack lunch or participate in the school’s lunch program.
Free and Reduced Lunches
Free and reduced lunches are available to children of eligible families. It is necessary to complete a qualifying application, which is available in each school building office.
Bringing Lunch from Home
Our lunchrooms operate under a reduced-waste philosophy. Our intent is to encourage our students to become more conscious of the amount of waste materials resulting from daily habits and to recycle items whenever possible. Your support in using reusable items such as Tupperware or sending recyclable materials in lunches brought from home is much appreciated. To encourage a well-balanced lunch and reduce the amount of uneaten food, please monitor the amount of food and types of food sent.
Due to the number of students with food allergies and restricted diets, as well as the desire to ensure that what students bring from home is what they eat, students are discouraged from sharing food with other students.
It is considered a privilege to eat lunch in the school lunchroom. Lunchroom behavior must be appropriate or the privilege may be removed for individual students.
Students will go outside for lunch recess unless the air temperature or wind chill is below zero or there is a steady rain. Please be sure your child is dressed for the weather.
