LUNCH TICKETS-
Parents-could you please stress to your child that they are not to be coming in DAILY to buy lunch tickets. They should only be coming in occasionally when they don't have a lunch &/or ran out of tickets Please have your child keep an “emergency” ticket in a special pocket in their binder or in their locker in an “emergency” envelop.
Please bring in Exact change (2.25) for your lunch ticket. If a student borrows a lunch ticket, he has to pay it back the following day. If the student has not paid back or if he has borrowed twice in the trimester, he will not be able to borrow again.
