School Lunch Program & Snacks

Morning Snacks

Please pack your child a healthy, easy to eat snack for the 10:00 am recess. Most classes will eat their snack during recess, Kindergarten teachers usually choose a snack time right before or afterward recess. Be sure to pack your child's snack in a separate container or bag from their lunchbox (otherwise children tend to eat all of their lunch and snack at the same time!).

Universal Meal Program (Breakfast and Lunch)

The San Carlos School District offers breakfast and lunch at no cost to all students, regardless of family income. All student’s have the opportunity to participate in the district’s meal plan, but participation is not required. 

Meals will be ordered by school sites based on student preference and participation. A variety of options will be available for breakfast and lunch for students who would like a meal. Parents are not required to place orders.

Monthly menus will be shared in the Heather Headlines, the school newsletter, so that families can discuss options and choices together. There will be cold items served for breakfast such as cereals, muffins alongside a fruit/vegetable option, and two hot options for lunch. In addition, there will be at least one cold item offered as well for lunch. Vegetarian options will be available at each meal time and allergies will be accommodated.
