​Lunch Program*

As of October 1, 2024, Saint Mary School is participating in the Archdiocesan Sponsored National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs. This program is offered through a partnership between the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, the USDA, Revolution Foods, and Saint Mary School. Through this program, families can receive breakfast and lunch at a reduced cost. Parents/guardians can submit an application to see if they qualify for free or reduced-cost meals. This support is based on family income and size. We encourage all parents to submit an application. Applications can be requested in the school office. The following are the expected costs for the school year:

Full-Price Breakfast: $2.50 | Reduced-Price Breakfast: $0.30

Full-Price Lunch: $4.00 | Reduced-Price Lunch: $0.40

Breakfast and lunch are available in the school cafeteria daily, with the exception of holidays, no school days, and vacation days. Breakfast and lunch will be provided during the assigned times (TBA). The monthly breakfast and lunch menus with pre-order forms can be found in the Documents Section of the school website and mobile application. They are also emailed at the beginning of each month to parents/guardians. The daily menu can also be found in the Dining section of the website and mobile application. Parents/guardians must submit the pre-order form with payment for the following month. Due dates will be posted in the Calendar/Events Section of the website and mobile app. If parents need to drop off lunch for their child(ren), it must be brought to the office no later than 11:15 AM, regardless of whether students eat during 1st or 2nd lunch. No exceptions can be made to this policy.

If students require dietary accommodations, parents/guardians must fill out the forms found in the Documents Section. A licensed healthcare provider must sign the Meal Accommodations form to validate a medical need. Milk substitutes can be made by submitting the Milk Substitute form.
