Bringing a Lunch from Home
Students can also choose to bring a lunch from home. Please consider packing lunch in an eco-friendly bento box to minimize packaging. Students must also be able to manage all packaging in their lunch.
If a student has a special diet, please inform their teacher and ensure the student is aware and can manage all aspects of the diet independently. Teachers may not heat special student meals in microwaves or store lunches anywhere but in student backpacks.
