Cafeteria Information

Important Information

USDA Food & Nutrition Services will not be extending the waivers that allowed schools to serve free meals to all students. 

• Breakfast
  • Research shows children who eat breakfast pay better attention in class, have less discipline problems, and can catch on to new learning more quickly. 
• No Student is allowed to charge a la carte or extra items.   
• Lunch codes are provided so that parents/guardians and employees can pay on account to keep a positive balance. Parents/Guardians can view their child’s account and their meal purchases through Skyward Family Access.
• Please contact your child’s school to get set up in Skyward if you have not already done so. 
• Contact Tina Roy ([email protected]) / 865-984-0531 with any questions or concerns.
