Lunch Procedures

Our lunchroom is divided into 3 lunch times. 11:05-11:25 grades 1 and 5 eat their lunch, from 11:35-11:55 grades 2 and 3 and from 12:05-12:25 grade 4 eats their lunch. We have CHAMPS expectations for all children in the lunchroom. Please help us teach your children how to be responsible in the lunchroom by reinforcing this at home.
