BREAKFAST AND LUNCH
Breakfast: Students are encouraged to eat breakfast at home prior to coming to school; however, breakfast is now available for students to consume at school. Breakfast bags will no longer be sent home. The cafeteria opens at 8:45 for breakfast. Parents/guardians can escort students to Door 2 starting at 8:45am through 9:10am. After 9:10am, parents/guardians are not permitted in the bus loop. Bussers who would like breakfast will report directly to the cafeteria upon arrival.
Lunch: All lunch choices are the same (main lunch, salad, sandwich, chicken nuggets, and peanut butter & jelly). Students now go through the lunch lines instead of receiving a prepared meal. Students are encouraged to eat their fruits and vegetables!
Adventure Away!
- All students and staff will travel to LHS at 9:30am to watch the performance. Please be sure to return the Field Trip permission slip to your child's teacher by 4/28.
- The evening performance for friends and family will take place at 6:30pm at LHS. Tickets are $5 and available at the door or pre-sale: llucernoni@lockportschools.net.

The entire George Southard faculty and staff would like to thank the PTA for the generous lunch on Friday, 4/8 to show their appreciation.
