See attached order form

Mrs. Schwab.
Breakfast and Lunch Ordering:
A special reminder that breakfast & lunch orders are due every Monday by 5pm for the following week. Our food service program requires pre-ordering, we can not accommodate “walk up orders” at the lunch counter. We do not have any flexibility to accept orders after the deadline since we have to submit our orders to the lunch vendor; we would be incurred a significant charge to any additions after the deadline. In happy news, if by chance you do miss an order deadline, you miss out on only one week’s worth of ordering. In that event, be sure to send lunch from home for the week as we do not have extra lunches on hand.
You can find the lunch ordering links for the next few weeks posted here:
