Students wishing to purchase a lunch would place their orders with the classroom/homeroom teacher at the beginning of the day. Lunches may be paid for with cash, or parents may pre-purchase any number of “lunch tickets” through the main office and distribute them to their child/ren daily from home or the responsible child may keep them securely in his or her desk or locker at school. “Lost” tickets cannot be reimbursed, so parents and students must manage them securely whether at home or at school.
CCA participates in the federally-funded free and reduced price school lunch program for eligible families. Application is made through the CCA business office.
Parent volunteers serve an extrememly important role as CAFETERIA MONITORS through the first two lunch periods (Kindergarten - 2nd graders and 3rd-5th graders). Parents interested in helping the school in this way should contact Mrs. Nancy Mayer through the school, who serves as coordinator of our cafeteria monitors.
