Home > Handbook > Health Topics > Meals MealsA healthy child does better academically. We believe children are better able to concentrate and learn if their bodies are properly nourished. Please encourage your child to eat a balanced, nutritious breakfast before coming to school. For lunch we would like to suggest a fruit or vegetable, sandwich or other entree, drink, and occasionally a snack or dessert. Caffeinated drinks are not allowed at school. Students are to eat their own lunches and not share or trade with others. All classrooms have microwaves for students to use on a limited basis, with assistance from the teacher. Due to the wait time for microwaveable food, students will have more time for activity after lunch if they bring a non-microwavable meal. Parents are strongly encouraged to send a nourishing lunch with your student in the morning. In the rare event it becomes necessary to bring a lunch to your student at the school, please bring it to the school office no later than 11:15 a.m.
Snack Foods for SaleSome snack foods (i.e., Popsicles, popcorn, corn nuts, & granola bars) are sold after school, not at lunch. Students are not required to purchase these snacks and the snacks should not be used as a substitute for a healthy lunch.
Hot LunchHot lunch is offered several times each
month by Home and School as a
fundraiser. Please watch notes your child brings home,
weekly newsletters, and the information board for information on hot lunches. |
