Lunch Program
St. Alphonsus School and Preschool provides a hot lunch program for our students. Students are served an entree, a vegetable and fruit along with low fat chocolate milk to drink. Water is also available for those who do not drink milk. We do not participate in the Federal Free and Reduced Lunch Program but offer a reduced lunch price for those who turn in an application and qualify.
Hot lunches are $3.00 per student. Families may purchase lunch tickets if they prefer. A lunch ticket is $60.00 (20 lunches). We also sell milks to students who bring lunch boxes. Milk tickets are $6.00 (20 milks per ticket). The school will send a notice home with your student when your lunch count runs low or runs out.
Our school received a grant from the St. Louis Dairy Council to provide a snack cart for students. Students in grades K through 8 may purchase a snack for $.50. We also offer a "Snack Ticket" for $10 which provides your student(s) with 20 snacks. Snacks are healthy and/or dairy based such as yogurt, cheese sticks, yogurt drinks, etc. as well as fruit and grain bars, cheese and crackers, breakfast bars, etc. We also offer fruit for our non-dairy and/or grain free/gluten free students.
The monthly lunch menu can be find on our app and this website under "Dining."
