We are very excited to offer parents/guardians back into the building to eat lunch with their child. With this change in procedure, we wanted to send a reminder with our lunchroom guidelines and procedures for visitors in the lunchroom.
1. Immediate family/guardian or grandparents of students permitted.
2. There are parent tables located in the back of the lunchroom where you can
sit with your child.
3. Lunch is scheduled for a 20 minute time period. Students need to return
from eating lunch with their family when their allotted lunch period is over.
4. Students may not bring friends over to eat with parents/guardians.
5. Carry in food is permitted but for parent/guardian and student only.
