A LA CARTE SERVICE AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS is available to all students who have money in their food account or cash along to pay at the registers.  A la carte items are NOT included with the  meals and must be purchased using their Food Service Account (if there is money in their account) or with cash at the register. A la carte items include but are not limited to chips, juice drinks, ice cream, cookies, and PB & J uncrustables.  Extra entrees would be included as an a la carte item. (example of an extra entrée would be an extra slice of pizza). All items sold from Food Service follow the nutritional guidelines put forth by the Federal Government.

LIMITED LUNCH SERVICE AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS are used when a student is very negative in their lunch account and the family has been notified by Food Service that service will cease if the account isn’t brought current.  If the student doesn’t bring a sack lunch or cash to pay for the lunch the Food Service Department will allow the student to eat a limited lunch.  The limited lunch will consist of 2 pieces of bread and a peanut butter cup (as the entrée) and then will be allowed to have the fruit, veggies and milk offered and the account will get charged accordingly for the limited lunch.  They will NOT be able to have their choice of an entrée.

ORDERING LUNCHES AT THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS

Lunches are prepared fresh daily at North and West High Schools and transported to the Middle Schools.  By 9:00 a.m. each day, a count of the number of lunches to be sent is required.  Students eligible for free or reduced price lunches will not automatically have a lunch ordered for them.  They must order a lunch through the school office, weekly is preferred.  If they do not do this, no lunch will be ordered for them and they will not be able to eat.  Students eligible for free lunches who have ordered lunches, then do not eat them even though they are in school, will not have a lunch ordered for them after the third day.  Arrangements must be made with the school office for future lunches to be ordered.
