Families are required to pack their own lunch and snacks. We highly encourage packing a healthy and well-balanced meal as recommended by the USDA for more information please see https://www.myplate.gov/
We use Ali Catering as an alternative to packing lunch.
SNACKS AND LUNCHES
Students may not bring sodas that contain caffeine (e.g., Coke, Pepsi) or caffeinated beverages (e.g., Starbucks) to school. Caffeine is a stimulant, which may cause some children to have difficulty concentrating and behaving. Juice boxes and SMALL plastic bottles of juice are acceptable.
In our ongoing effort to teach students individual responsibility and healthy habits, please do not bring fast food lunches to the school office. The child should bring his or her lunch with them in the morning.
If you would like your child to eat a hot lunch, please order lunch through the school lunch program. Repeatedly bringing lunches to the office will not be allowed.
GLASS CONTAINERS MAY NOT BE BROUGHT TO SCHOOL. No LARGE bottles of water or sports drinks may be brought to school. Students who do bring bottled water or juices to school need to keep them in their backpacks and take them out only at lunch or recess.
Inclement Weather Policies:
Rainy Day Policy- During a rainy day, students will eat and play indoors. Staff may allow students to play outside as the weather permits. Students wearing rain boots must change into tennis shoes in the classroom.
Heat Day Policy- If the temperature gets to/above 99 degrees in the sun or the heat advisory level 2 (orange). Students may eat outside, but will play or watch a movie in the classrooms during recess and/or lunch. Any heat advisory above orange-level, all students will remain inside.
