Lunch Program

At MSLF, catered lunch is included in tuition for all School Day and 1/2 Day + Lunch programs.

• In addition to healthy snacks, nutritionally well-balanced lunches are provided for children who stay for lunch in all classrooms. Milk and water are provided every day.
• Faculty discuss lunch routines for each individual classroom at the Annual Parent Meeting.
• Monthly lunch menus and allergen lists are posted in classrooms, sent to all parents/caregivers via email, and are available in the School Info section on Transparent Classroom. Additional paper copies are available through the office.
• Parents should review the menus, and supplement lunch if there are items their child should not have. No refunds are made for lunch costs.
• Please be sure to notify the office and your child’s teacher in writing of any special dietary or allergy restrictions for your child.
• If you prefer, your child may bring a simple, nutritious lunch from home. Please follow school policy:
• Prepare simple, nutritious, and balanced food items.
• Packed lunches should include an ice pack to keep items cold, as needed. Refrigerator space is not available.
• If your child wishes to bring a hot item for lunch, please pack in an insulated thermos.
• Do not include any nuts or nut products in your child’s lunch. Please check with your child’s teacher regarding classroom specific restrictions. Please also check labels carefully to avoid potential adverse reactions to any food items that you send to school.
• Do not send foods containing sugar or artificial ingredients, dessert items, junk foods, beverages, or fast-food meals, or have lunch delivered to school for your child.
