From Previous Newsletters...
Attention: Visitor(s) during lunch
When a student has a visitor(s) come for lunch with them, the student (if they wish) may invite ONLY ONE friend to sit with them in a booth in the commons. We have limited booth and cafeteria space . Parents/visitors should be eating in a booth in the commons. Only if the commons booths are full, then they could come eat in the cafeteria. (exception will be if they need a peanut-free table or at TA discretion)
We have shared this information with our students during announcements this week. We have asked our students to act with integrity and lead this expectation. Thank you for following this request.
