Dear 4th Graders, 5th Graders, and parents! Going out to lunch is a much-anticipated privilege for 4th and 5th graders. Being able to make food choices independently is exciting, but also a huge responsibility. We have put together a list of menu items the establishments within the parameters offer. Kids can always bring their own ‘take-out’ from home, or, if you have a myschoolbucks.com account (previously mylunchmoney.com), get a grab-and-go bag from the cafeteria – and eat and socialize on the red benches in front of the school. To save money and instill both green and healthy values, consider sending your child with a reusable water bottle. Think if you really need a plastic bag with your take out and use the recycle stations in front of the school. Please tip appropriately in restaurants. Remember that candy and sugary drinks are unhealthy, and impact performance at school.
