Mission Statement

The Knight’s Cafe mission is to create district-wide healthy options through our cafeteria, connecting our kids to where food comes from and educating students about good food as part of a healthy lifestyle. 


Program Goals:



Ala Carte Items (Snacks):

PK-5: We ask that you provide a written/verbal note stating your child can get snacks off of their account. We will make a note on your child's lunch account. If there is no note on your child's account we will not permit them to have snacks.

6-12: If your student has money on their account then they are permitted to have snacks unless we are told otherwise.

Milk $.50

Extra main dish $1.50

Snacks range anywhere from $.50-$2.00

We accept cash, online payments or checks made out to Copenhagen Central School. When paying by check, please put your child's name on the bottom of the check. Thank you.

If you have any questions about prepays, breakfasts, lunches, or snacks contact Nicole Grandjean

Make Life Easier With Pre-Payments!

Ever Wish You Could Know What Your Child Ate For Lunch?

Ever Wish There Was An Easier Way To Manage Your Child's Lunch Money?

THERE IS!!!

MySchoolBucks is an innovative way to track your child's lunch account. You can see what they are spending your money on and you are able to see how much money is on their account. Don't forget you can also add money on their account without it ever touching your child hands.

FYI: There is also an app for that. Now keep track right on your smartphone.

Red barn meats

Red Barn Meats is a family-owned business and was established in 2013. As our business grew, we saw the need for USDA products and services. Shortly after moving to Croghan, we applied for USDA inspection. Since then, we have grown exponentially. We now employ 28 individuals who take pride in their work every day. 

We take pride in offering quality products and reasonable prices. Our beef, pork, lamb and chicken are sourced from local farmers.

The attached memorandum includes the Food and Nutrition Service’s (FNS) complaint processing policy update related to program complaints alleging discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation in programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance.

In short, discrimination on the basis of sex in programs or activities receiving Federal financial assistance includes discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and discrimination on the basis of gender identity. This policy update is consistent with the Supreme Court’s decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, 140 S. Ct. 1731, 590 U.S. ___ (2020), and applies to prohibitions against discrimination based on sex in all FNS programs. This memorandum will impact the processing of program discrimination complaints, effective immediately. In addition, FNS’s Civil Rights Division will update the Nondiscrimination Statement (NDS) and the And Justice for All (AJFA) posters to include gender identity and sexual orientation as protected bases. We understand these changes may impact your operations and we will be available to provide you with technical assistance to make the necessary changes.

All documents, pamphlets, websites, etc. should be updated with the 2022 NDS (included below) as follows:

AJFA posters currently posted must not be removed until replaced with the new poster.  SED will post an update on our website when the new AJFA posters are received.

Please contact your program representative with any questions.
