Just a quick reminder about our expectations in the lunchroom:
There is no budging in the lunch lines. Please wait your turn and stay in line.
Taking items without paying is considered stealing and is against our lunchroom rules. Students who are seen doing this will be subject to disciplinary consequences.
If you are not getting food, please do not stand in the lunch line or hold a place for someone else.
Please be respectful to our lunchroom staff and to the students around you. We all share responsibility for making the lunchroom a positive and respectful place for everyone.
