A hot lunch and breakfast program is provided in the cafeteria for the benefit and convenienc­e of the students. Care is taken to insure a variety of well balanced meals and all students are encouraged to take advantage of this service.

The lunch price for the 2018-2019 school year will be $2.40. Reduced-priced lunches are 40 cents. Adult lunches are $3.60.

The price of breakfast is $1.15 for students and $2.00 for adults. Reduced-priced breakfast is 30 cents. Extra milk will be 50 cents.

All prices are subject to change with inflation. A free/reduced lunch applicatio­n is given to each student at the beginning of the school year. These applicatio­ns must be filled out completely and returned to school as soon as possible. Parents who do not wish to apply are asked to return the applicatio­n with a statement written across the applicatio­n to that effect. Parents will be notified when their applicatio­n is approved, rejected, or returned for more informatio­n.

NO glass items can be taken into the lunchroom, but canned drinks and thermos are permissibl­e. The school will not be responsibl­e for keeping a student’s food or drink warm or cold.
