We'd like to give a HUGE thank you to all of our staff who prepared meals and came to help hand them out!
Monday, our cafeteria staff prepared 144 meals (36 bags holding 2 breakfasts and 2 lunches). Wednesday, they served 240 meals (60 bags with 2 breakfasts and 2 lunches in each), and on Friday, they distributed 120 meals (60 bags with a breakfast and a lunch in each). That makes a total of 504 meals served to our students and community this week! Our numbers were a bit off earlier in the week and those posts have been edited to reflect the correct information.
Remember, if you'd like to pick up meals, you must let us know the day before - either by e-mail or through Remind. If you request meals, please make sure you come pick them up.
This week we will be handing out meals on Monday and Wednesday. Friday, there will not be meal pick up due to Good Friday.
