A sandwich,
fruit, milk and chips or cookies will be provided for students for
$1.50. Free or reduced lunches are available to qualified students.
Students may bring their own food; there are microwave ovens available
for heating food in the student commons. Our school policy regarding
good nutrition discourages students from having sodas before and
during school. Students are strongly encouraged to have a water
bottle with them throughout the day. Bottled water is available
at the school for 50¢. Candy and other types of junk food high
in caffeine or sugar are counter-productive to student effectiveness.
Our students enjoy open campus lunch. We strongly encourage all
of our students to choose healthy diets in order to support optimal
brain function.
Part of our vision is to foster a high level of personal responsibility
in our students. With parental permission, we extend the privilege
of an “open campus” during lunch to our high school
students.
