Food Service Director's Letter
Dear Parent/Guardian,
We can’t wait to welcome students back to the cafeteria for the 2024-25 school year! To kick off the new year, we wanted to share a few things you and your child can look forward to when it comes to mealtime, including information on meal pricing, steps to apply for free and reduced-price meals, how we manage food allergies and the documentation needed, and an inside look at the new recipes, concepts, and programs we’ll be introducing this fall.
Food Kids Love to Eat
Chartwells’ team of chefs and dietitians are working to bring even more variety to our menus featuring new recipes with kid-approved foods. This year we’re serving up:
- Global Eats- Starting at MS-HS in November with China, India, India, Mexico &
- Discovery Kitchen alternated schools – Monthly
- Apple Crunch Day in October
The value of school lunch is top of mind as families continue to experience inflation and growing food costs at home. In addition to giving kids the chance to try new foods and cut back on food waste, school lunch provides students with healthy, balanced, and safe meals at an affordable price, while saving families time and stress.

Lunch Payments
PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE CHECKING YOUR BALANCE ON MYSCHOOLBUCKS. SKYWARD WILL NOT BE ACCURATE.

School Attendance Policy
- Anyone with flu symptoms and a fever of greater than 100 are encouraged to call their doctor.
- Any child with a fever of 100 or greater will be sent home from school. They are not to return to school until they are fever free for 24 hours per the following directions:
- The Center for Disease Control and Marion County Health Department has told the schools that students should stay home from school for at least 24 hours after their fever (100°F or 37.8°C) is gone. (The fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine, such as Tylenol® or Ibuprofen)
