Lunch numbers are making a comeback!

Starting Wednesday, April 1st, all students will be provided with a unique four-digit lunch number that will be used for breakfast and lunch. This number will remain with your child throughout their time in the school system, from elementary school until they graduate high school.

Students will need their lunch numbers to receive both breakfast and lunch. During this transitional phase, students with a backpack will bring home a laminated green card attached to it. Students without a backpack will carry the card home separately. This card will display your child’s name and lunch number.

We strongly encourage you to review these numbers with your children to help them memorize them. This will speed up the process during meal times and ensure a smooth transition for all students.

Thank you so much for your support and for working with us as a team in this matter.
