MENUS AVAILABLE IN LATE AUGUST
Breakfast and lunch are provided at no cost.
Menus will be posted on ParentSquare each month.
Breakfast and lunch are provided at no cost to families who wish to order meals through the school. Teachers will ask students what lunch they are having (from home or from school) and whether they would like breakfast for the following day each morning before school begins. Breakfast will be served in the lunchroom from 7:40 AM-8:00 AM.
To ensure students receive their full lunch time, please be sure to communicate with your student(s) about which days you ordered lunch for them.
Breakfast
Students may order a (FREE) “grab & go” breakfast that will be served in the lunchroom from 7:40-7:50 am. To meet federal regulations, students must take the full breakfast if they’d like to participate. This includes an entree item (dry cereal, muffin, bagel), a hand fruit (banana, grapes, apple), and milk or juice. Breakfast service stops at 8:00 am, so please make sure to arrive early if your student has ordered breakfast.
If your student would just like to purchase milk, those can be purchased for $0.50 per milk.
You can pre-pay for milk at our online school store or by giving the teacher cash or checks ( made out to Arthur Academy).
Lunch
Students may order a (FREE) school lunch or bring a lunch. If you choose to pack a healthy lunch for your student, remember that they do not have access to a microwave or refrigerator. Lunches should be packed with easy-to-open, kid-friendly packaging. Milk can be ordered a la cart for lunch for $.50 cents. Please note that when ordered alone, milk is not free.
***If your student has any food allergies, alternate food items are available. Please contact the office to let us know of any and all food allergies your student may have.***
Free Breakfast and Lunch are provided as part of the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP)
What is the Community Eligibility Provision?
The Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) is a meal service option that allows schools and school districts to serve breakfast and lunch at no cost to all enrolled students without the burden of certifying students for meal benefits. Schools that adopt the CEP are reimbursed using a formula based on the percentage of students who are normally certified for free school meals, without an application.
Who is eligible for free meals?
All students enrolled in Arthur Academy are able to get one free breakfast and one free lunch at their school each day.
Do I need to apply to get free meals?
No! Meal Benefits applications are no longer needed or accepted.
How do free meals work at the school?
Enrolled students are automatically eligible to receive one free breakfast and one free lunch per day. If a student wants to purchase anything extra, it will be charged to their account.
Can students have more than one meal if they are still hungry?
Just like the free and reduced meal program, students can get one free breakfast and one free lunch per day.
Second meals, extra milks, and a la carte items, such as second entrees, for an individual student will be charged to their meal account.
What if a student just wants the entrée or a milk? Can't they just get that for free?
Students can get one free breakfast and one free lunch per day. Individual meal components like milk are not considered a (complete) meal on their own. Students who wish to have only part of a meal will be charged for that item to their meal account.
Can a student still get a school meal if they brought a meal from home?
Yes, enrolled students are always welcome to get a complete breakfast or lunch at school regardless of what they brought from home.
