Food Service
Elementary School students eat lunch in our lunch room and are grouped by grade level. They may purchase or bring lunch. A monthly menu is posted on our web site and a pre-paid lunch card may be purchased. The menu is varied and consists of freshly prepared favorite foods, local produce and a healthy beverage, all of which are nutritious and tasty. If prepared lunches are sent to school we urge parents to scan the ingredients and eliminate food choices that list sugar, fructose and enriched bleached flour as main ingredients. Research studies suggest that what children consume does impact on their energy level and their emotional state. Kindergarten and Pre-School children eat lunch in their classrooms. Friday is “Pizza Day” for all of our Pre-School and Elementary School students who want to buy lunch.
Following lunch, weather permitting, all students enjoy an outdoor recreation period where they can make use of various ball fields and numerous playground areas. Both lunch and recess are supervised by experienced teacher assistants.
All students are served a healthy snack once a day. Fruit, cheese or whole grain items are provided daily.
