Milk money (approximately $30) is collected twice a year (September & February) The cost of 2% white milk is $.35 per 1/2 pint. Milk that is purchased for the year is available for some classes at snack time. For other classes it is provided at lunch instead. Please refer to communication from your child's teacher for additional guidance.

Students pick up their lunch on the way to the lunch room. Kindergarten and Grade 1 may drink their milk at snack time and parents may send a beverage for lunch.

IMPORTANT!! PEANUT-FREE ZONE FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR STUDENTS! Peanut-free zone. In the lunchroom one table (closest to the windows) in each row will be the peanut-free zone. There will be tape on the corners of the table to make it more obvious. These eight tables will be thoroughly washed before lunch and after each lunch period. Students sitting at these tables will be monitored for peanut-free lunch snacks, etc. Anyone who goes to the peanut-free zone with anything containing peanuts will be asked to move. This is the best solution we could work out so that no one feels ostracized in the lunch room while maintaining safety. Please remember we have students with contact- allergies. Help us by reminding your child of proper, polite eating habits.

ALLERGIES: More and more of our students are suffering from food allergies; in particular allergies to nuts. This includes the actual nut-to-nut oils used in cooking etc. PLEASE speak to your children concerning sharing food, trading food, etc. at lunchtime and snack time; also about personal hygiene and cleanliness of their area in the cafeteria. It is possible for a person to have a reaction by touching a surface that has peanut butter residue on it. Try to reinforce that it is not a matter of being "unkind" not to share, but unsafe to share food and drink. Thank you for your continued cooperation.

Soft pretzels are offered on a weekly basis. The cost of a pretzel is $.35. The cost per week is $1.75. On weeks when we are only in session 3 days there are no pretzels. All pretzel money is due on Friday for the following week. Money for pretzels must be in CASH, sent in SEPARATELY for each child since the count is taken by classroom. Please do not combine your children's orders or pay for more than one week at a time.
