Food & Nutrition

For the safety of our students, parents/guardians are not permitted to have lunch with their child/children during the school day in the school building. An exception to this policy may be made if the CEO elects to participate in a celebration, such as National Lunch Week. If the Charter School is participating in a celebration where parents/guardians are invited to have lunch with their child, the CEO will establish specific guidelines for parents/guardians. Parents/Guardians electing to participate in this celebration will not be permitted to bring in restaurant food from outside sources

All students are eligible to participate in the Federal Breakfast and Lunch programs. Meals are served in the student Cafeteria/Community room. 56 Breakfast is served from 7:30 to 8:00 AM for grades K through 8. Lunch is scheduled according to the teacher’s teaching roster. Students may bring their own lunches. Please note glass containers and sodas are not permitted on school grounds
