🥪✨ Lunch Box Helper – Did You Know?
Students who bring lunch from home can still enjoy cafeteria items at NO cost!
Thanks to our school meal program, students may select at least 3 of the 5 food groups offered in the cafeteria (including a fruit or vegetable) ... even if they pack lunch from home.
✅ Add yummy sides
✅ Try some fresh fruits and veggies

It’s a great way to make sure every student has a complete, balanced meal each day!
