• An extra milk ($0.30)
• A milk if you brought your lunch from home ($0.30)
• Bottled water ($0.60)
o we do have a water cooler in each cafeteria if you do not want to purchase a bottle
• An extra entrée—Jr/Sr High Only ($1.00)
• Flavored waters—Jr/Sr High Only ($2.00)
• Other a la carte items—Jr/Sr High Only ($1.00)
If you would like your child to have the option of purchasing these items, please add money to their lunch account as we will not be allowing a negative balance this year.
