USDA Complimentary Lunch Program
The United States Department of Agriculture has announced that school districts will be able to continue to offer one complimentary lunch per child per day until June 11th, 2021. What this means is that all students (attending classes in person, virtual students learning from home or needing a meal that can be picked up for other reasons) will not be charged for one lunch each day that school is in session.
Lunch Pick-Up Program for Virtual Students
Students learning virtually and other families with children (ages 18 years and under) and other children at home in need of a meal that are experiencing hardship may register to participate in our lunch pick-up program by contacting our Food & Nutrition Services Department. The pick up location will be door No. 25 on the south side of the Eisenhower MS/HS building, 4333 S. Sunnyslope Rd. There will be a sign out to help mark this area. The current safe distancing pick-up procedure is for you to call the kitchen at (262) 789-6321 as you pull up and tell us your name. We'll bring the lunches out and set them on a table. After we have stepped away from the table, you get out of your car and pick up the lunches. Pick up will take place between 7:30-9:30 a.m. on days that school is scheduled to be in session.
To register for the meal pick up program please email ikitchen@nbexcellence.org or call (262) 789-6321 by 9 p.m. the day before you would like to begin to pick up meals. Please include the following information:
- How many lunches do you need?
- What flavor milk (chocolate or 1% white) would you like for each lunch?
- Does any child receiving a lunch have a food allergy we should know about?
- What ages are the children?
- Are the children virtual students in our district?
- Approximately what time do you expect to pick up the lunches each day?
- Cell phone number
The meal pick up program will be fully operational starting Tuesday, Sept. 8. If you are experiencing extreme hardship, a limited number of lunches will be available before the start of the school year. Please email or call the above number for further information.
