Lunch and Snack

All children must bring a lunch each day they attend school. Parents are responsible for providing their child with a healthy, well-balanced meal and a drink. The preschool is unable to heat or refrigerate lunches due to equipment limitations; a small ice pack should accompany each child's lunch to prevent perishables from spoiling. All lunches should be labeled to avoid any confusion.

Parents are responsible for signing up for and providing snacks in their child's classroom on a rotating basis throughout the school year. Healthy snacks such as cheese and crackers, fruit, peanut butter and crackers and raw vegetables and dip are recommended. Parents need to bring a chilled bottle or can of 100% juice as well. Please check with your child's teacher as to the appropriateness of the snack (some children have food allergies).
