Hot lunches, with plain, chocolate or skim milk included, are available to all students who wish to purchase them. For those children who bring their lunches from home, milk is sold separately (one price for plain, chocolate or skim milk).
Menus are printed weekly in the Lexington Minuteman and also are distributed to students on a monthly basis from the school. Lunch is paid for daily. The children have 45 minutes for a lunch and recess period. They are allowed to take as much time as necessary to eat lunch and then go directly to play. Teacher aides supervise the lunch and playground periods. Behavior conducive to good eating habits is expected in the lunchroom. Children may bring a snack for the mid- morning recess.
Except for the kindergarten, milk is not available for recess periods. The P. T. A. Board provides a fund from which children may borrow. It is imperative that borrowed money be returned immediately so that the money will be available to other students. A notice will be given to a student to bring home on the day money is borrowed. If the fund is exhausted, no further money can be loaned until it is replenished by those who have borrowed from it.
It is requested that children bring the correct change each day. This will facilitate and expedite the serving and sale of lunches and milk.
They will be on sale at the school on a regular basis. Information about their availability will be sent home at the beginning of the school year.
