School Breakfast is served from 7:30-8:00 a.m. Your child may bring breakfast from home or purchase from school. Breakfast is eaten in our classroom.
Lunch is served at 10:50 a.m. in the cafeteria. Your child may buy a school lunch or milk, or bring their lunch from home. You may eat lunch with your child, but we ask that you do not begin doing this until September to allow us time to get our routine established.
There will be several days throughout the year where LQA is in session, but the rest of the school district is not. Our first day of school, August 1, is one of those days. Your child will have to bring a home lunch on those days.
