Cafeteria and Menus
The Food Service Program is again offering parents the opportunity to purchase an annual meal plan or to pay for meals using a monthly payment plan. All students will receive information and a form for this program. We encourage parents to sign up early to receive the most benefit from either meal plan. As in the past, parents can pay using a variety of means – credit card, check, or money order. Parents should call the CCPS Food Services Department to pay by credit card, or if there are questions.

Prepaying for meals is a win-win situation for students and staff! Lunch lines move at a faster pace when students and staff aren’t dealing with the money. Students who prepay don’t need to worry about forgetting lunch/breakfast money. Mrs. Shandrowski, the cafeteria manager, keeps track of the meals and notifies parents when students have almost used the prepaid amount, to allow time for additional meals to be prepaid without a break in the routine.
Complete lunches are served and include a half pint of milk. Milk, ice cream/snacks can be purchased separately. Children may purchase lunch in advance or pay cash for lunch. Breakfast is also available each morning. In the event of lost or forgotten breakfast/lunch money or a forgotten lunch, students may borrow money from the cafeteria. Prompt repayment is essential.
Elementary Breakfast $1.25 Reduced Breakfast $ .30
Elementary Lunch $2.00 Reduced Lunch $ .40
Please note that "extras" such as ice cream and cookies may not be available to students every day of the school year. Mrs. Shandrowski waits until about the end of the first month of school to sell ice cream to Kindergarten students. This allows time for them to get into the routine of having lunch at school. On early dismissal days the lunch schedule is altered to accommodate the earlier dismissal time. Due to the number of students being served in a shorter amount of time, selling "extras" is not always possible.
