McKinley School

Meals

Students may bring their lunches to school or eat a hot lunch in the cafeteria. All of the children eat together in the cafeteria, whether purchasing a lunch or bringing one. Please note that the school does not have microwaves for heating food or refrigeration for keeping student�s lunches cold, so please prepare accordingly.

Purchasing Hot Lunch Menus for breakfast and lunch are sent home at the beginning of each month. Each child at McKinley is issued a lunch number for serving purposes. It is recommended that you deposit some money in the cafeteria for those �just in case days�.

The price of a school lunch is K - 5th graders - $1.75; 6th to 8th graders - $2.25; reduced lunch - .35 cents. This price includes milk. Milk can be purchased separately for .25 cents.

Breakfast may be purchased in the cafeteria from 8:00 � 8:20 a.m. every day for .75 cents and .25 cents for reduced breakfast..

Snacks Kindergarten and elementary school students often have snacks once or twice a day. The choice to offer these snack periods is up to the teacher. If your teacher provides these breaks, you will often receive a notice in the red communication folder asking for donations of snacks. Parents are asked to donate healthy snacks for the class and a list of suggested snacks will generally be included on the form. Treats for the class for birthdays can be arranged with your child�s teacher.
