Keeping Kids Safe
Parents, we need your help in keeping our kids safe! We know it is tempting to get out of your cars and walk around campus if you arrive early for pickup, but we ask that all adults remain in their vehicles during dismissal. Should you need to go to the front office, we ask that you park and go to the front doors. Please do not enter the buildings via back doors or gymnasiums when school or dismissal are still in session.
We appreciate all the help we can get to keep our kids safe while at school.
LUNCH ORDERS!
My Hot Lunch Box is OFFICIALLY open for ordering! Lunches will start being served in SEPTEMBER! I am attaching lots of information on how to order, frequently asked questions, etc. A few reminders if you don't want to read everything!
- Orders MUST be placed and/or cancelled by NOON the day before.
- If your student wakes up sick and you still want to receive their lunch (because it is past the deadline to cancel), you must call the front office and alert us. We will set aside the lunch but it must be picked up that day. (We don't have fridge space to keep food overnight.)
- THURSDAYS are Cici's days and ordering for that is through a different link! https://www.thenclalunch.org/
To begin ordering lunches, click the link below and follow the instructions on the attached registration letter to create your free account.
If you have any questions, please contact My Hot Lunchbox at (888) 894-8295 or email: info@myhotlunchbox.com. rmd.me/VYUi8wq0Yrq
